*Sold in sets of two—we’ll pick two pretty ones for you!*
Bring a touch of French pastoral charm into your home with these 19th-century French shepherd’s bells — once worn by sheep or goats grazing on the hillsides of rural France. Each bell is individually hand-forged in bronze/brass alloy and retains its original dark, time-softened patina, with a beautifully aged surface and a gentle, resonant tone when rung.
Each bell is unique, with subtle variations in shape, sound, and wear — authentic evidence of their working history. Perfect styled in a bowl, hung on a peg rail, added to a holiday garland, or layered into a curiosity vignette.
