My brass galleries has three makers named Riedl. All appear to be out of business by now.
I tend to doubt that Riedl actually made that ring, as they appear to have concentrated on trumpets and trombones. In one case Konstantin Riedl of Nürnberg engraved his name on a Miraphone instrument sold by him. Who the maker of your bell ring was will be hard to tell. If not Alexander, then Markneukirchen would be a likely source.
