Traditionally used by farmers in India to identify their livestock, each bell is tuned to produce a distinctive chime. Producers in the desert Kutch region manually cut and hammer the metal to hand-shape the bells, then coat them in powdered brass and copper before firing in kilns. Each rustic bell is then tuned to reveal a rich, unique sound like no other bell.
