This bell will ring

Rob Ryan has produced a series of mugs, each one with a bell on which rings a different message. Rob Ryan discovered that bells have inscriptions and names, he says "it's as if each bell had a personality and a voice and it was saying something - so I held onto that idea. Rather than seeing bells as overtly religious, I wanted to adapt them more to everyday things which would relate to everybody on a personal level." See Spitalfields Life for the full article.

This bell will ring when we have to run for the bus. This bell will ring when we hang out the washing. This bell will ring when our sun finally dies.
