Rare Arts & Crafts House Gong for Wall Mounting with Bronze Elephant Sculpture

About the Item

Very rare and striking (lots of pun intended) Arts & Crafts wall gong. This remarkable house gong with an elephant sculpture even comes with the original and perfect working condition striker. The beautifully handcrafted bronze elephant and gong are a real joy to look at and the combination with the perfectly shaped, oak wall bracket makes this rare antique even more desirable. This practical size house gong would have been used to gather the family for diner or for calling upon servants. Antique gongs are usually from Asia, but this European Arts & Crafts specimen is extra rare, also because it was made for wall mounting. The brass gong, by the way, makes a beautifully resonating and warm sound that is a pleasure to hear. Especially, when struck to announce that dinner is served. However, it is also suitable for, for example, meditation or yoga sessions. Thanks to the brass hook on the back, mounting this fine antique on your wall can be done 'in no time at all'. Our price for this rare and stylish gong even includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days. Maximum height x width x depth: 17.9 x 7.7 x 5.9 inches. Diameter of the warm sounding gong: 7.7 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again).
