Brass troika bell Brass troika bell

In 19th century Russia, troikas - sleighs drawn by three horses - were a common method of transportation for noblemen. Their brass bells rang true, signaling family members and villagers of the troika's approach. We have a few genuine bells, vintage late 19th century. Many are adorned, in Old Church Slavonic or Tsarist-era Russian, with a famous proverb or saying. (some have markings inside) Tradition has it that each chime of the bell sends the inscribed message forth to the heavens. No two exactly the same. Approximately 4"e;x4"e; and 1 1/2 lbs.
