Bronzen bel (bell (idiophone); unknown Javanese; 800/900 CE; Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands); AK-MAK-314; RM001.collect.1980) | |
Note: A small, richly decorated priest's bell from Indonesia. The bronze hand bell was used in Buddhist rituals. Such hand bells are still used by Buddhist priests, for instance in Bali, Nepal and Tibet. But they are rarely as finely executed as this example. The priest's bell consists of three parts: the domed body of the bell itself, the handle and the top. Four adjacent heads form the handle. The upper part (varja) consists of four sickle-shaped protrusions around a pin. | |
