Bells (zhong) of this type with a large loop handle formed by the addorsed bodies of dragons or birds are known as bo. They come in various sizes, as they were made in graduated sets, and with variations in their decoration.
Several bo zhong of this general type are illustrated by J. So, Eastern Zhou Ritual Bronzes from the Arthur M. Sackler Collections, Arthur M. Sackler Foundation, Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, 1995, pp. 372-7, no. 77 and figs. 77.1-.5. The decoration on all of the examples is similarly arranged but varies in pattern and detail.
