    Description

    RARE! Antique Karen Hill Tribe Bronze Round Elephant Bell
    Free Stand
    Very Old Authentic Karen Hill Tribe of Northern Thailand bronze elephant bell. Formerly used by Karen Hill Tribe mahouts to keep track of elephants. Elephant bells are becoming more and more rare as almost all the elephants in Northern Thailand have been moved to elephant conservation centers or tourist entertainment centers. Formerly they had been used by Karen and other hill tribes for tasks such as clearing land, etc. This is not a reproduction, it is an authentic Karen elephant bell that was used by real elephant. To the Karen people, elephants are revered creatures. According to Karen folk lure, keeping such a bell that was used by an elephant in one's home will ensure good luck and prosperity for the family living in that dwelling. I have included a brief history of the Karen People below.
    Dimensions: Approx 10 inches X 5 inches X 3.5 inches with stand. Bell is approx 3 inches in diameter (can be seen in the photos above.)
    Bell alone weights approx 650 grams
    Materials: Bronze
    Age: 19th Century (Note: Stand is new)
