This listing is for a N. RARE Antique Bicycle Bell unique mould piece display. It is an excellent Early American Accessory, made in Connecticut USA circa 1887. It is on a folk art style plaque, which is inscribed, N. Hill Brass Co Bycicle Mold East Hampton Conn. I have not seen another quite like it. It is an excellent item for collectors of bicycle memorabilia / antiques, gifting, display/ decor, gifting, and much more! Perhaps they could be turned into some musical machine or sculpture as well that can actually play notes- the possibilities are endless! It is in great antique condition. It could be re-mounted on a more professional looking plaque, but the original has a certain charm to it. If that is the case- In a sense they are New old stock. I believe they are in fact a mould component due to the thickness of the center shaft connecting them, its a large amount of brass to waste every time you cast. They have a pleasing patina, I have not cleaned them at all to not disturb it. Cleaning is at buyers discretion. Thank you for your consideration, reasonable offers always considered. Comes as shown, please see photos for details and measurements.

[Found untouched & covered with dust and silt in an early southern New Hampshire post and beam center chimney cape with attached barn]. Early to mid 19th century Ame ri can antique New England primitive vinegar grain painted wooden furniture & decorative wooden accessories. 17 3/4″ Length x 11 3/4″ Height x. Without its original hinged lid but with exceptional, early corner large, hand-cut dovetailed joinery. Unfortunately, at some previous juncture, someone took a hand scraper or hand plane and removed some of the paint decoration on the dovetailed areas of both painted short sidewalls. The painted front sidewall remains largely intact but is now missing its original metal, keyed lid locking hardware. One of the handcrafted iron, looped pin hinges that would have held the lid in place at the rear is still present, as is one of the affixed side leather lifting/carrying handles. No attempt has been made to replace the lid with another or to’in-paint’ the areas of missing paint where a less-informed soul removed some of the original and now nearly 200 year-old paint decoration on its corners. The real story here though is with its vinegar grain painted exterior, with its exuberant, lovely, squiggly vertical brush strokes that resemble a mop dipped in green paint and dragged right and left down its sidewalls over an ochre background. Still with its original period paper wallpaper lining its interior and still largely intact, although with some minor to moderate staining in places. 100% original and untouched. An extraordinary, genuine, early to mid 19th century Ame ri can Folk Art artifact and example of early New England primitive painted furniture and paint decorated wooden accessories. It may not be 100% intact or perfect but it remains largely untouched and an honest, now nearly 200 year old New England primitive artifact. Almost as old as dirt. Found in southern New Hampshire. Fair to Good overall vintage condition. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Decorative Collectibles\Boxes, Jars & Tins”. The seller is “modsanctuary” and is located in this country: US.
