From the oldest business in Switzerland, this Berger bell is in wonderful condition.  The Berger family has been making bells for close to 300 years beginning in c. 1730.  Their attention to detail and quality is the hallmark that makes a Berger bell.  This bell is in wonderful antique condition and has been preserved with a leather conditioner and a light cleaning of the brass.  If desired this bell would polish to a mirror finish however we leave that decision to the next owner.  We tend to fall in love with the patina a bell develops over time.

This Bell comes to us from the Burbank collection.
