Dang. (or Ding Dong Dang) Isn't it wonderful when someone takes the time to make a mundane object so beautiful?
Great.

Ha, what's funny is that my 11 yr. old walked into the room while I had this on my screen and I was saying almost the exact same thing to her, explaining how the craftsman could have just made the bell functional, but decided that it was better to make it something else instead.

I would be all over it but the minimum bid on this is $600 (which I don't have!) :)
