Description |
Pair of silver colored metal harness chimes made of brushed German nickel. Each chime is made up of four circular, domed metal bells: two larger bells are mounted in center one on top of the other and there are two smaller bells mounted to arms on either side of the larger cups. Inside each cup are three to four spherical clappers. The bells are mounted to a U-shaped metal base with a hole in the bottom of each arm. Mounted to the top of the uppermost bell is a gold colored, metal finial shaped like a unicorn's head. There are fish-shaped decorations above each smaller bell. The chimes can be mounted to a horse's harness by two holes in the U-shaped base. |
