Antique Brass Gong with Galleon Ship Design – Wooden Oak Stand & Mallet Vintage
A vintage brass gong featuring a detailed galleon ship motif in relief, with a matching cast brass ship mounted at the top of the frame. The gong is suspended within a solid brass ring which is mounted to a wooden oak base and comes complete with its beater/mallet.
The richly toned brass and decorative maritime design give this piece strong visual charm, making it both a functional object and an eye catching decorative item. Gongs of this type were traditionally used in wealthy Victorian and Edwardian households to announce meal times or call attention, lending this piece a sense of historic domestic ritual and character.
Whether displayed in a hallway, dining room, study or coastal themed interior, this gong offers charm, craftsmanship and a nod to classic maritime styling.
A perfect gift for anyone who has an interest in boats and ships.
