90cm Gunmetal Cowbell With Black Leather Strap

The Significance Of German Cowbells

German cowbells are otherwise known as "Kuhglocken". These cowbells often have a strap attached to them, allowing them to be easily fastened around the neck of livestock such as cows. These bells are typically made of metal, such as iron, brass or bronze, and come in various sizes and designs. The size of the bell can vary depending on the desired sound and the size of the animal it is attached to. By attaching the bells to the animals such as cows or goats, farmers can easily locate their livestock in pastures or mountainous terrain as the bells produce a loud and resonant sound. In addition to their functional use, German cowbells form an integral part of cultural traditions and festivities. They are often used during festivals, parades, and events celebrating rural life and folk traditions. This style of cowbell is also referred to as a Tyrolean cowbell, otherwise known as an Alpine Bell that is traditionally used in the Tyrol region of the Alps of Austria, Italy, and Switzerland.

This hand beaten German cowbell includes an original leather strap with coloured fringe, antique buckle and a wrought iron hanger. It can be used independent of the strap or hung from the strap as a decorative feature.
