    Description

    Vintage Japanese wooden bell set used for altar service within a Buddhist temple.  Such bells are called
    mokugyo
    in Japan where they are used by Buddhist priests during the performance of religious services.  The bell is struck over and over in quick succession producing a steady cadence which helps the priest keep time during ritual chants.  This large bell and smaller bell(please see size information below) has seen previous service and have quite a lot of scratches and marks from past use.  The bells are otherwise in very good condition with no cracks.
