[Bronze Plated Enamel Birthday Bell for Three People]

Bronze Plated Enamel Birthday Bell for Three People, Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, with a total height of 100 centimeters, a face width of 40 centimeters, and a thickness of 32 centimeters
This clock is made of copper plated wide enamel in imitation of European architectural styles, decorated with Western scroll grass patterns and inlaid with red and green stones. The entire bell body is carried by four goats. The clock is divided into three layers: the upper layer is a circular three needle clock, with a bunch of pineapple flowers inserted in a tall cup at the top of the clock, and there is a water method between the supports supporting the clock. A rolling curtain is hung in front of the square pavilion on the middle floor. When the curtain is rolled up, it can be seen that there are a series of bell bowls on the left and right inside, each with a different pitch. The bell ringer sits in the middle with a hammer in his hand and plays music on time. The lower enamel rack seat is surrounded by a landscape on four sides of the stage, with a total of 12 rotatable tooth carving treasure donors around it, and the stage landscapes on both sides are equipped with water techniques. In the front stage landscape, there are three people, one holding a “Long Life and Boundless” couplet. In front of him, there are three goats, symbolizing “Three Yangs Bring Prosperity”. The sheep’s mouth can be opened and closed, the tail can be swung, and each person on the left and right sides carries a peach plate in his hand
This clock is finely crafted, with complex processes and many moving devices. After the winding is started from the back of the bottom floor, the curtain in front of the middle floor pavilion is rolled up, and the bell ringer taps on the bell bowl to play the music. Accompanied by the music, the couplet holder in the interior view of the base opens the couplet, and the peach holder bows forward in the shape of a peach offering. Each layer of water, pineapple flowers, and treasure offerings rotate, presenting a festive and lively scene.
