We recently salvaged this bell along with a few more from a home on the east coast. It is in amazing, and in incredible condition. This call bell pull was placed somewhere in a homestead and was used to summon upon hired help for assistance. A brass interior chain (original still remains) was connected to a longer chain that activated a bell somewhere in the home. It has an ornate solid brass design with a white porcelain center with hand painted in gold and a matching smaller one at the bottom of the handle. Measurements: 6″ tall by 4″ wide and a 2 1/2 projection. Governor’s Architectural Antiques has been in business for over 50 years.
