Description: Here is a very rarely found Richard Rohac dinner bell that utilizes an animal form, likely a deer, as its handle. Rohac’s bells are hard to find, but usually they appear with a long straight and fluted handle. See our sold page for an example we previously sold. This example is not signed that we can find, but we guarantee its authenticity. We have attached an image from a page in a Rohac sales catalog showing his use of this exact same handle on another bell model and which also shows that the lower bell portion did use other handles.
