The Shaolin Temple Bell is a large, ornate bronze bell with a symmetrical, rounded body that tapers slightly towards the top. Its surface is intricately decorated with traditional Chinese motifs, including dragons and lotus flowers, all finely engraved and embossed. The bell features a heavy, polished wooden beam at the top for hanging, and its surface has a weathered, aged bronze finish with subtle green patina in crevices, suggesting years of exposure to the elements.
