Don't be fooled by the pictures!, January 12, 2008
By CookieCookinFool from Sugar Land, TX

"These bells (I bought two) are beautiful! Much finer detail than the picture. Very vibrant colors and a very nice sound. They were shipped directly from India and were VERY well packaged. The photos don't do them justice. If you want to add a bell to your collection or to give as a gift, you won't be disappointed."

Brass Flamboyant Bell, November 28, 2007
By Legmor from Chester, NH

"I had searched for month's looking for a bell my mother could use when she needed us. I had forgotten to check Overstock.
The picture of the Bell does not do the bell justice. When the bell arrived, my mother kept wrapping it up as she said it was to pretty to use. The tone of bell when rung is musical. The quality of the workmanship is excellant. I wish I could send a Thank You note to the family who made the bell."
