A chrome-plated desk bell that rings when the top button is pressed. It was most likely used in establishments such as hotels or shops, where customers could ring it to attract attention.
Historically, desk bells were primarily used in aristocratic households. During long meals, they were used to summon a maid to serve the next course or bring drinks. This custom was particularly widespread in America, whereas in Europe it was more common for servants to stand by the table so they could immediately attend to any request. Desk bells became widely used in Europe only in the 19th century, when they started to appear in establishments such as hotels, restaurants, and shops.
