Antique Khmer Style Bronze Mounted Elephant Bell - 28cm/11"
Measures - (Height) 28cm/11". Tall
An antique Khmer style bronze Bell. This exquisite ritual bell was created to be rung during ceremonies.
The bulbous bell is decorated with symbols of Erawan and surmounted by a looped suspension ring.
Erawan is the three headed elephant. Erawan is a mythological elephant who carries the Hindu god Indra.
When we ring the bell we can easily imagine its rich tones ringing out across the 12th century Khmer capital, Angkor Wat. Graceful and powerful, it evokes the beauty and serenity of a vanished ancient world.
The bell is working and mounted.
The black wood and metal stand shown will be shipped with the bell.

While Thailand is predominantly a Buddhist country, the influence of Hinduism, particularly through the worship of Shiva, has left an indelible mark on the nation’s cultural and religious identity.
From the art and architecture of ancient temples to modern-day rituals and festivals, Shiva’s presence is deeply embedded in Thai society.
