Old Sleigh Bell from Belgium

This bell of indeterminate age is from a farm in Belgium and was described as a grelot ancienne, which means old sleigh bell.

Approximate dimensions of the bell are a circumference of 7.25" with a double throat (slits) and 13" from end to end of the leather neck strap.

CONDITION: *Please note the leather neck strap has heavy wear in the form of darkening, cracking, and scratching. It is also missing the belt loop that would secure the end of the strap. Additionally, the holes are of uneven size and unevenly spaced, and the buckle only fits through one of the larger holes. It would have to be forced through any of the other holes.
