Cowbells are worn as standard by alpine cattle when left to graze in alpine meadows. They serve the purpose of being able to easily find the odd cow that has wandered off for a nibble in that even greener pasture over yonder. A decorative version of the cowbell is worn for festive occasions such as the colorful spring and winter cow drives, taking the cattle up to the high pastures in the spring and back to the valley pastures in the fall.
These are beautifully made with Swiss craftsmanship and make great gifts, decorations for your home, your dog's cart, or for prizes for canine competitions and clubs.
