A GERMAN SILVER AND GOLD-PLATED TABLE BELL OF HISTORICAL INTEREST
CIRCA 1913
Set on an hexagonal base, cast with a border of oak leaves, the field with foliate and hexafoil openwork; the bell with horizontal bands, and applied German crest and inscription, the cast finial with herms and foliage, apparently unmarked
6¾ in. (17.2 cm.) high

专家说明

There are two inscriptions found on this bell. Above the eagle: I am called the Kaiser's Bell/His honor I praise/On holy ground I stand. The inscription found on the other side above a representation of the Apostle Peter: For the German Empire I beseech/That God would grant peace and protection. For a similar example also belonging to Kaiser Wilhelm, see: Gold and Silver Items: Treasures of the Hohenzollern from the Castle Huis Doorn, 1985, plate 103.
