ChartWhat is inside
One ball on a short stem. No engine, no committee, no quarterly guidance. It swings, it lands, the market hears it.
How to ring
Hold it high
Wood in the hand, green side down. Nobody has ever rung one upside down and got away with it.
One clean swing
A shake is not a ring. A ring has a beginning and an end and everyone in the room knows which is which.
Do not stop
The sound is the product. The sound carries down the hall and across the floor and into somebody's phone.
Look up
Everything green comes from above. It always has. Ask anyone who has been standing under it.
The opening
Nine thirty. Somebody lifts me, somebody swings, and for four seconds every screen in the building agrees.
Parts list
Three pieces, no moving parts I can be blamed for
The handle
Turned from one piece. The only part of me that was ever a tree, and the only part anybody is allowed to touch.
The clapper
One ball on a stem, hanging in the dark. It has never missed and it has never been early.
The rim
Two raised rings and a flare. That is the door the sound leaves by, and it is the loudest part of the day.
The vault
Proof of ringing
