| Notes on support and decorations | Bronze bow-shaped handle, ending in two stylized bull's heads. At its centre there is a projecting circular perforated element, while at its extremities there are two rings. The object is interpreted by Legrain as a lamp's support in which a stem was inserted on the upper hole, while the two lateral rings had to support the lamp's chain. |
