C.S. Bell Company, founded in 1858 by Charles Singleton Bell.

The largest of many American producers of iron or steel bells was probably the C.S.Bell Company, located in the town of Hillsboro, Ohio, east of Cincinnati. Using a special cast steel alloy called "crystal metal," this firm produced bells of all sizes from 12" diameter post-mount farm or dinner bells, to 48" diameter church bells. These bells, unlike those made of bronze, do not carry any inscription (except possibly a size number on the top). Instead, the identification of the maker is found on the yoke from which the bell hangs. They also manufactured bells with other trade names cast into their yokes, such as "Montgomery Ward" and "Sears and Roebuck", and those bells still had the "Crystal Metal" marking cast into their yokes as well, and these were marketed through those company's catalogs.
The older ones are usually made of a type of metal, though in the modern era larger ones tend to be metal while others can be other materials, such as porcelain or fiberglass.
Bells, triangles, cymbals, n stuff =)

Bells are usually made of cast metal such as brass and iron, but small bells can also be made from ceramic or glass.

Most cow bells were (and are) made from metal, not wood. Sounds from metal travels a lot farther than sounds from wood. But basically, a wooden cow bell serves the same purpose as metal cow bells: for a farmer to easily locate where the cow went, since most cows in the mountain regions are never confined to fenced areas.
Schonbek chandeliers are made from crystal with metal trim. The crystal may be colored in more recent models. The chandeliers range in style to be both contemporary and modern.
The actual bell is usually made out of metal. Steel, titanium, or aluminium will do. The handlebar clamp can be made of either metal or plastic. Sometimes they're even simply attached with a rubber band/o-ring.
