21:33 Aug 10, 2001

English term or phrase: CHIANTEL FONDEUR SAIGNELEGER
Inscription on a bell cast in 1878 (possibly a cow bell)
J Read
Selected answer:Chiantel Foundry, Saignelegier, Switzerland
Explanation:
I did some research on the net and found that Saignelegier is the name of a town in Switzerland. Other bells with the same inscription are described as "Swiss cow bells" on the sites that I found. I also found one link that gives Chiantel as the name of the foundry where these bells were cast.
Hope this helps.
Try doing a search on www.google.com with the inscription Chiantel Fondeur Saignelegier (and not Saigneleger) and various combinations of the words. Also try Chiantel Foundry. You should find some interesting results.
