Description: ELEGANT KOKESHI MAN IN A TOP HAT BRASS BELL This listing features a unique little brass bell with a handle shaped like a wooden kokeshi doll, all dressed up in a top hat and tails. I should probably keep this wide-eyed gentleman because he is absolutely adorable but he has been in service here long enough. Measuring slightly over 5 inches tall by 1 3/4 inches in diameter at the bell, it is marked JAPAN on the rim of the bell. The condition is vintage very good with slight fading to the varnish and paint, particularly on the top hat. Everything can be touched up if the new owner prefers. He weighs an elegant 108 grams. The bell still has the original clapper and has a delightful ring for summoning anyone’s attention. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer different shipping options for your budget & peace of mind ~ click Shipping before purchase. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Check out other uncommon items from three generations of our family as we downsize.
