    I could really use some input and advice on this little bell.
    It measures 4 1/2" tall. Not really sure what it is supposed to be. a vegetable?
    Does the mark look legit?
    Any guess on age?
    I'm not going to ask the $ question, Although i haven't been able to find another one.

    I know nothing about Fulper and have no way to check but there are some on Worthpoint calling it Morning Glory bell from the Novelty Line.

    This is a similar blue one.

    MORNING GLORY SONNETTE MAID'S BELL' 333 NOVELTY LINE

    This rare Fulper 'Morning Glory Sonnette Maid's Bell' stands 4.25" high by 3.25" in diameter. It is one of a number of designs by the Fulper Pottery, a 'Porcelaine' Novelty line piece. This bell, with its original porcelain clapper, is in the form of a Morning Glory. It is glazed in a rainbow of pastel colors, the 'variegated' color palette according to the original catalog. This bell is finished to a satin sheen. It is marked with the Fulper racetrack ink stamp on the underside, dating it between 1922 and 1928. There is no damage.

    The left side of the cabinet has a WWI era Fulper doll head and complete doll, as well as a small example of the variety of Fulper Porcelaine novelties produced during the 1920s. The right side shows a few examples of the Fulper Fayence line of artware that was produced from 1924 to 1928.

    Someone with an account may know. I wouldn't have guessed it was Fulper just based on my very limited understanding of what they look like. Who knew? Learn something new every day. I don't know if they've been reproduced or not though someone probably knows such things:)
