I spy a dolphin! We personally adore these bells and the story behind them. A customer in Australia designed the 3 bells as a birthday surprise for his wife.
They are building a new home, and from it they can occasionally see dolphins frolicking in the water. To alert the rest of the family to enjoy the view a bell will be rung. The M17 heirloom bell will be hung on an outside deck, and the two M307 hand bells stationed in other parts of the home. What a wonderful idea.
All three bells have special tooling of several dolphins on their rims, and the M17 also has 2 dolphins hand tooled on the face of the bell along with custom lettering at the rim.
This is the 1976 Montreal Olympics bell. It is an M19 model bell which was first cast, then oxidized and engraved on its face. We can oxidize or polish a bell at your discretion. An oxidized bell gives a deep bronzy gray color, and does not have to be maintained with future polishing to maintain it's luster. Both polished or oxidized bells may be personalized with letters at the rim.
These 2 m19.5 size bells (left) are hanging in a reproduction church in the historic Jamestown settlement Virginia. Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II walked under these bells on May 4th 2008 during her state visit to Jamestown. The bells are oxidized to look old and also withstand the elements.

Two ships bells from WWII sunken British Navy war vessels were recovered from the Norwegian fjord "Namsos", but the third bell from the HMS Rutlandshire is still missing and had to be replaced. We cast the middle bell, which was generously donated to the museum by our customer. You can see it displayed here with the other 2 original bells.
