This mechanical desk bell features a bicycle-style ringer assembly mounted for tabletop use. The front of the bell consists of a brass hemispherical dome decorated with a high-relief casting of the American flag. The flag design includes stars and stripes within a circular border. The rear of the bell is constructed from a silver-toned metal shell. The entire assembly is supported by a curved steel bracket fastened to a tiered, oval-shaped wooden base with a reddish-brown finish. The bell is operated by a traditional thumb-lever mechanism located on the side. No manufacturer marks, patent dates, or hallmarks are visible on the metal components or the wooden base. Dimensions: 4.5 x 3.5 x 4 inches.
