Description
Wonderfully inspired teak wood tortoise statue made by Rajasthani craftsmen from vintage Indian teak wood cow bells. Cow bells were hung around the neck of cows by farmers across India and would help the farmers to locate their cattle in the field. They have been used for centuries across India because of the strength and weather hardiness of the teak wood. These genuine vintage wooden bells feature a wonderful patina because of their age, very similar to the shell of a tortoise. Each bell is unique – some are larger, some are smaller, some are thick and some thin. The tortoise makes for an unusual and decorative piece that can be either placed in the home or garden. Imagine him creeping through the tall grass or out of a flower bed! This is the Small version. Sizes approximately 30c20x15cm but we cannot be exact as these are hand made.
