Blown glass garden bell

Large melon bell in blown glass late 19th century. It is handmade it is a unique piece, very heavy, with these particularities. The cabochon has a shine, it was broken by the market gardeners to stack the bells on top of each other more easily. (see photos for the marks of time). The glass has traces because it was covered with milk of lime that protected the crops from the sun's rays. It is a beautiful piece of decoration in the garden or house. I have a second one for sale that you can see on my profile. Dimensions: diameter 50 cm and 30 cm high.
