Asian Bronze Bell

Can't figure if Chinese or Japanese? No traditional motif and no idea what is the decoration about? Also, not sure if that is natural patina or artificial. Not asking about the mark because I doubt someone can read it.

 

American, Paolo Soleri.

 

Thanks a bunch. I would never figure it out. Very nice sound.

 

Thanks again. Recognized the mark right away this time.

 

That’s a really cool one I haven’t seen before, nice pick!

 

Thanks. Just enough to describe it as rare

 

Listed it last night. People are going crazy on it. If you see any of these for sale, go grab them.

 

This is not marked but wonder if it was made at Consanti studio?

 

Nevermind, possibly made by unknown to me Walter Lamb.
