Elkington & Co, Antique Cast Table Bell

Here we have an antique cast table bell from the evergreen Elkington & Co and made circa 1856. As with many, this bell is bereft of any of the original plate and as a consequence the tone remains wonderfully clear. Despite being marked (11. 48) to the interior rim, we have found it virtually impossible to identify; "beyond reasonable doubt", the exact modeller, and it's title, however one possibility is The Fox and the Crow from Aesops Fables.
