Antique Chinese brass bells

I have 3 brass bells, when searching the internet I come up with nao bells and ancient Chinese bells that are the same. Who can I take these to so I can confirm their origin and find out more about them?

There has being a moratorium in China on anything that's seen as old/antique etc for years so the Chinese

 

started making a lot of copy items to fill the "demand/void" that was left and they have become pretty good at

 

faking that sort of stuff and selling it for high prices.

 

Maybe try the Bendigo Golden Dragon museum which is regarded as probably showcasing the best Chinese

 

culture during the years from the goldrush to present day.good.gif
