Beautiful vintage Aynsley Cottage Garden fine bone china hand bell, made in England.
This particular version is catalogued by specialist replacement-china sellers as the Cottage Garden Ridged Bell. It has a wide flared bell-shaped body, subtly ridged or panelled sides and an elegant elongated handle with a shaped top.
The bell is decorated with the classic Cottage Garden pattern, featuring colourful roses, bluebells and other cottage flowers, green foliage and butterflies against a glossy white background.
The original blue and gold Aynsley foil label remains attached to the front. Inside the bell, the original hanging chain and white ceramic clapper are also present.
Chinasearch records the ridged version at approximately 5½ inches tall, while Replacements catalogues the closely corresponding ribbed version at 5¼ inches under piece code BELLM6. Based on these specialist records and the proportions shown in the photographs, this example is best listed as approximately 5½ inches tall.
The Cottage Garden collection was produced from approximately 1970 to 2001, although this individual bell does not carry an exact year of manufacture.
A charming collectible piece for a dressing table, mantelpiece, shelf or china cabinet. It would also make a thoughtful gift for a collector of Aynsley china, decorative bells or vintage English ceramics.
