The History of Sleigh Bells

Antique sleigh bells continue to be treasured as heirlooms, due to their history and symbolism. Charming as decorations, restrapped and restored vintage sleigh bells hold tremendous appeal. But what exactly is the historical background behind sleigh bells?

Ornaments, such as bells, have adorned horses around the world as far back as 800 BCE and this tradition continues on today. Horse bells were thought to attract good luck as well as ward off disease, injuries, and evil spirits. Such decorations flaunted the wealth and status of the horse's owner and served to enhance the appearance of the horse.

As a practical use, horse bells have been used to alert those nearby of activity, such as nearby pedestrians that may be in the path of a horse or in a door opening to a store.

In the 1500s and 1600s, bells were plated with gold or silver and engraved with a coat of arms and inscriptions. In te 1700s and 1800s Horse Bells were used when traveling on pack horses. In the 1700s and 1800s, these bells were used on horse drawn wagons.

In the early 1800s, the sleigh bell industry began to develop into a thriving industry that ultimately produced what we most often think of today.

The 1900s with the invention of the automobile spelled the end of the bell manufacturing business. This is due to the Model T and Henry Ford. The horse rapidly was retired from being the primary means of transportation.

Horse Bells Today

Horse bells are now used for decoration and to set a festive tone for a pleasure ride in a horse-drawn sleigh, carriage or wagon.

Many people enjoy owning and using vintage bells manufactured in the days when horses and their bells were an integral part of people's daily lives. We hope to make that a more-common occurrence by offering restored antique and restrapped vintage bells for customers.

Others choose to purchase new bells. Although all cast-brass sleigh bells are made overseas, a number of U.S. businesses are still using time-honored techniques to produce new sleigh bell straps.
