Offered is a pair of vintage Mammy-style figural bells, dating to the mid-20th century, each designed with hand-painted faces and colorful cotton dresses covering fully functional metal bell chambers. These standing female figures were crafted with molded heads, expressive features, and vibrant patterned clothing typical of Black Americana decorative objects from the 1950s–1960s.
Each bell features a hollow metal underside with an internal clapper, producing a clear ring when moved. One wears a green gingham dress with a matching head wrap, and the other wears a yellow printed dress with a red head wrap. These bells present well as nostalgic Americana collectibles, folk art décor, or additions to a bell-focused collection.
