The
above bell was installed into a larger memorial by a Fire Department in
Texas. "To Our Fallen Brothers 9-11-01"
It is an M19 size bell (11 3/4" and 26.5 pounds) with personalized
lettering around the bottom rim. |
Have the
Firefighters Maltese Cross cast into your bell at the rim along
with other lettering ($35 custom tooling). A
combination of custom lettering and the Maltese Cross make for a
unique heirloom firefighters' bell.

We can custom craft
bells using your art or logo.
Our bell shop does not digitally render images - but hand tools each one so
they are unique.
A custom logo will generally take a bit longer than a
lettered-only bell. Please contact us
via phone or email for a quote on your custom design.
For an exact quote, please email your
black and white art work
and the size bell you are considering. Pricing for special tooling
is generally between $225 and $425 depending on the intricacy of the art.
A bell with simple lettering around
the outside rim (no custom art) can be
ordered online and crafted in 6-10 weeks. We also have an inventory of blank
(unlettered) bronze bells and brackets in stock that can be shipped to you immediately.
All bells can be ordered online.

All bells are
cast from
pure bell bronze. The finish is polished bronze. Any variation in
color in the photos is due to the lighting in which the bell photo
was taken.
Bells which only have lettering at the rim
(no design on the face), may also
be custom ordered with an oxidized grey finish with the tops of the
letters polished.. |
