About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
The vintage BOJ Eibar reception bell in the shape of a turtle is a striking decorative object that combines functionality with refined craftsmanship. This specific piece, originating from Spain, stands out due to the detailed damask technique on the shell, making it a sought-after collector's item for enthusiasts of historic desk accessories. Crafted from robust metal and brass, finished in a warm gold color, this bell displays an intricate geometric and floral pattern in black and gold on the back. The damask technique, an ancient art form in which precious metals are inlaid into a dark background, gives the object a rich texture and visual depth. Located on the underside is the original winding mechanism, featuring the authentic BOJ PAT. marking, confirming its Spanish origin and the patented design of this manufacturer from Eibar. The object is in good vintage condition and the mechanism is fully functional. Over the years, the original finish has developed an authentic patina that emphasizes the historical character of the piece. The contrast between the gleaming metal and the dark, decorated shell has remained intact. This tortoise bell looks excellent on a classic wooden desk, an elegant reception desk, or as a conversation piece in a display cabinet. The design adds a touch of historical charm to both traditional and eclectic interiors.
