I'm copying a score in which the composer requires a treble clef

15 as a separate text, any suggestions would be much appreciated.

My only suggestion would not be much help. For Glockenspiel or
Orchestra Bells (or Crotales) the 15va transposition is a given and
is perfectly understood (much like the 8va basso for the string bass
or the 8va for xylophone), so indicating it in the clef is redundant
and is never done.
As I said, that isn't at all helpful.
