Set of 4 Sasaki Japanese Lead Crystal Bells

This set is from our personal holdings and the photo show them in one of our curios. These magnificent bells are from different years and are marked by year. They are 24% lead crystal, with gold trim. Each is in excellent condition, with no wear. I would like to sell them to a discriminating collector who appreciate the esthetics, not to a dealer or reseller.

The maker's mark has been described as a " backwards “6” over a “m”",  that's about right and as good a description as any. The sticker on each indicates the year. Each handle is different: and is dated 1983.  There is a sticker on the inside #F4719.  The bottom of the handles has frosted flowers and leaves.  The bottom is trimmed with gold gilt.  The clapper is faceted and attached by a gold colored chain.

It stands approximately 7 inches tall and the base measures 3 ½ inches across.

Please read these notes:

• We are happy to combine orders to save you on shipping charges
• If you have additional information about an item or wish to share your knowledge of a particular item, we'd be delighted to hear from you.
• The grading system used by many sellers to describe their books can be, despite best efforts and intent, subjective and often disappointing. You'll only find high quality material here:  most  are new or like new. Occasionally, there's minor shelf wear or a publisher's remainder mark, but the integrity of the book's condition is unaltered.
• Our shipping charges do sometimes include costs for packaging supplies  but are modestly incorporated in the shipping charge; there is no such thing as handling or processing.
• If you elect to make an offer please note that the system does NOT  take shipping into consideration; your offer is treated as if it includes both the price you are willing to pay for the item AND  the shipping. This can result in an offer that is less than the cost of shipping the item, which I'd have to reject.
• FEEDBACK: Most welcomed, but please contact us if you are unhappy with your purchase. We have a return policy and will gladly resolve any issue to your satisfaction.
• BOOKS THAT ARE NOT RECENTLY PUBLISHED: A book described as new but published several years ago is a reference to its condition;  meaning that the book has never been used but may have minor wear from long term storage.
• We  DON’T CHARGE FOR BOOKS TO THE MEN AND WOMEN SERVING IN THE ARMED SERVICES .  You will only be responsible for the shipping.
• REFUNDS: In general: no fuss, and no problem. Items  must be returned in the original condition within 10 days of receipt. Items that have been removed from their original sealed wrap (CDs, Books, etc that were in blister packs) will be credited at 80 % of item’s price
• LOSSES AND DAMAGE WHILE IN TRANSIT:  We highly recommend insurance and can provide it through Shipsaver and a rate below charged by the postal service. For items over $100.00 we will purchase insurance for you at no cost. You must notify us of any loss immediately however.
• INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE NOTE: We are very appreciative of our international customers and realize that your costs are higher. We will do our best to help you with that disadvantage, often by discounting the item's price. We will not, however, falsify customs forms by stating that the item you have won is a gift or by stating its value at a fraction of what it really is. Please expect to have to pay customs charges and any related fees. We do not know the customs charges in your country and are in no way responsible for them.  Additionally, packages can be held up in customs and take longer than expected for arrival. Unfortunately, we have no control over that.

Please be sure you have read these statements and only purchase if you agree with them. Thank you very much for your understanding
