Sleigh Bells ring, are you listening...

Actually, these are jingle bells, denoting a jingler inside of a round cast bell, instead of a clapper in an open type of bell, both of which have been used for sleigh bells.

Most of the antique sleigh bells we get are on cracked or rotten straps, so we re-set them for a new life on a high quality, pliable leather strap. All are of brass or bronze bell metal, and old. Some may show wear, but we think that makes them all the more dear. Just being in their presence and thinking about sleigh bells jingling over the hills from a horse's neck in their former life, makes our heart sing. These look great hanging by a fireplace, or draped over an old horse collar. (Example)

The straps are 5 to 7 feet long, with a varying number of jingle bells, and priced depends upon the number of bells & over-all quality of set.

Our camera flashbulb overdid the shine, as the actual color is more subtle.
