Birds of a Feather - IX


Victorian Cold-Painted Bronze Tea Bell with Parrot Handle (LEO Design)

 

Like Mary Poppins's talking brolly handle, this pretty parrot is mostly content to stand quietly—waiting to be of use.  The cold-painted Victorian bronze tea bell produces a delicate tinkling.  It's loud enough to be heard by the servants, but not so brash as to disrupt your restorative respite.  And its time-worn patina provides just the right touch of gentle decadence.  Click on the photo above to learn more about it.
