"Today, for its melodious sound, the world famous copper coated bell which is made in Kutch, Gujarat, this art is more than 500 years old.This bell was earlier made in Sindh province , even today some people make it there. families of 100-150 LOHAR castes are involved in this art.This work is going on from generation to generation.These bells were used to identify cattle. Bells were tied around the cattle’s neck so the owner would know of their whereabouts. Depending on the choice of the cattle herders, the bells were tuned by the Bell Makers. Different size of bells served for animals from goats, sheeps, cows, buffalos, camels etc. Before the earthquake in Kutch, this art was on the verge of extinction. But after the occurrence of the earthquake, this bell became very popular. Today this bell is very popular in the regional and international market. Due to the hard work of many NGOs and government agencies and schemes, this art got a lot of encouragement. Earlier it was used only for animals. But now these bells are used as wind chime and for décor the house."
