BELLBOARD - Black & Gold

from $5.00

Bell Boards were prevalent in Britain and America from the late 1700s to the early twentieth century. Predating the telephone, a simple pull of a knob or tug of a tassel caused the little flags on the board to wave, indicating which room was in need of service.

Inspired by the craftsmanship of the Gilded Age, when even the most utilitarian and practical items were constructed with care and beauty. This pattern is a subtle nod to the people behind the scenes who worked hard to keep these extravagant homes running efficiently.

NOTE: This is a handprinted pattern on handwoven sisal, there will be variations in the printed pattern
