Description
English: Sheet copper alloy rumbler or closed bell, spherical in shape, with a single strap loop that is 2.6 mm in diameter, and two opposing sound holes, that are 1.5 mm in diameter. The bell is made in two parts, from two hemispherical halves soldered together. The suspension loop is attached to the half that is decorated with stamped motifs of clusters of crescents and scrolls.
