I found this in the wonderful warehouse of C.C. Wong of CT. Before Mr. Wong retired he had salvaged and treasured a huge storehouse of Chinese antiquities. This crackled glazed ceramic ancient bell was among those treasures. It has been striped of its inners which makes this bell ready for its next life.  It’s wonderful as is sitting on a console, but could also be transformed into either a pendant fixture or a table lamp with major dramatic impact. It’s height, heft, color, texture and shape are what make this piece so unique. It measures 21 1/4’ high x 10 3/4” wide at the bottom and 1 1/8” at the top.
