This listing is part of the 'At Home with Patricia Wells' collection of epicurean objects and decorative antiques.
This superb antique French bell comes from Chanteduc, the home of Patricia and Walter Wells in Provence. Patricia calls it her 'call Walter' bell! When Walter is out in the garden or in the atelier, and dinner is ready, Patricia opens the window and pulls on the chain to call him in. The supports will be cut off from the façade for shipping. Note the weathered iron frame and superb Verdigris patina to the bell.
