Bremond bell boxes -- Congratulations on your new acquisition!
There is really no way to tell how many boxes of any given type are
out there now.  The Bremond bell boxes aren't "rare" or unusual,
but they are beautiful!

If I had to venture a guess I'd say that there are thousands out in
the world today.  So many boxes are in private homes where people
aren't a part of the automatic community [of collectors], but are
just enjoying or ignoring their family hand-me-downs ... so we'll
never know what's behind closed doors.

Enjoy it!
