Sleigh Bells

In early New England days, of horse drawn sleighs, owners would decorate their horses with bells. Each family took pride in the unique sound their bells made. With the roads being windy and narrow, you could hear if another sleigh was approaching. If you broke down and another sleigh stopped to help, it was customary to give the good Samaritan your sleigh bells, for their assistance. Hence the saying, "Ill be there with bells on" means you expect a happy and trouble-free arrival. Brass ring and 4 bells with dark brown leather 12"H x 3" W
