Description

A rare find, this fabulous figural desk bell was cast in metal in the form of a pig with a quality screwed construction. The mechanical bell can be would from the underside and then rung either by the snout or tail.

I believe German in origin, signed on one of the legs BGM and dating to the late nineteenth century, c.1890. On another leg there is model / casting number. Retaining two original glass eyes.

Excellent working condition, measuring 6 3/4" x 3 1/4" x 3 1/2" tall.
