Mid-century vintage solid brass bell featuring the mischievous Exmoor Pixie standing proudly on a pair of toadstools. The base is inscribed “EXMOOR PIXIE”, celebrating the famous folklore character from the Exmoor region of Devon and Somerset.
This charming bell captures the spirit of English myth and local craftsmanship, made during the mid-20th century when Exmoor Pixie designs became popular souvenirs across Britain. The brass has developed a warm, characterful patina that highlights the detail of the casting beautifully.
The clapper is intact, and the bell produces a clear, pleasant chime when rung. A wonderful piece for collectors of British folklore, mid-century brassware, or West Country memorabilia.
