Necklace in the Form of Bells

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Necklace in the Form of Bells by an unknown artist is a circular arrangement of numerous small to large bells made of a gray metallic material, likely silver. The bells vary in size and are densely packed together to form a substantial circular piece. The bells have a hollow, bulbous shape with a small loop or bail at the top of each. Some of the bells feature decorative elements around their openings. The background is a gradient gray color, transitioning from dark at the top to light at the bottom. A subtle shadow is cast by the necklace.
