Antique Mission San Juan Capistrano Bell
Exquisite 100-year-old bronze Mission San Juan Capistrano mini replica handbell topped with a Cliff Swallow handle (the bird famous for returning to their nests at the mission each spring to raise their young). Lovely, clear, high pitched ring.
3 5/8 inches tall, 2 3/8 inch diameter. Excellent, pristine condition with a luscious patina.
Designed and cast by Mrs. A.S.C. Forbes of the Forbes Foundry of Los Angeles, California between 1914 and 1937, this is a replica of one of the bells hanging at the mission. Forbes visited many of the missions and sketched what she could see of the bells hanging in the towers, replicating them in miniature in her foundry.
