The significance of the Temple Bell is best summed up by an old Chinese proverb:
Wherever there is a temple, there is a bell;
wherever there is a bell, there is a temple.
Many Temples are hidden deep within the Mountains of China, each with its own collection of sacred bells. The Chinese have long regarded these bells with a deep reverence. According to traditional belief, the sound of a bell ringing purifies the holy place in which it rests. In essence, the temple bell evokes one's yearning for peace, balance, and harmony.
This Temple Bell is a replica of a style that was made during the Ming Dynasty. As with many ancient bells, it features different symbols of animals, which were believed to dispel evil spirits. It is also are inscribed with Chinese writing - which traditionally portrayed poems, and the names and history of ancestors.
Decorative only (not made for ringing). Can be used outdoors or indoors. Makes a beautiful garden item!
