A classic mid-century American souvenir from Tennessee, this vintage ceramic bell features a perched owl atop a fluted bell form, finished in warm honey glaze with raised pink roses and green foliage. The front medallion reads:
“Nashville – Music City, U.S.A.” with crossed guitar and banjo motif surrounded by musical notes. "Mel Tillis County Store" is printed on the back.
The interior retains its original clapper and wire assembly.
