RUSTIC Set of 2 Old Karen Hill Tribe Bronze Round Elephant Bells2 Free Stands
Very Old set of 2 bronze elephant bells hand crafted by the Karen Hill Tribe of the Golden Triangle Region. These bells were formerly used by Karen Hill Tribe mahouts to keep track of elephants. Elephant bells are becoming more and rarer 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. These bells are not reproductions, they are authentic Karen elephant bells that were used by real elephants. 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 9 inches X 5 inches X 3.5 inches with stand. Each bell is approx 2.5 inches in diameter (can be seen in the photos above.)
Each Bell weights approx 350 - 380 grams
Contents: 2 Bells 2 Stands
