Notes
This rosewater sprayer belongs to a group of copper vessels that have carved shapes as their most distinctive decorative element. The oldest artifact is the large candlestick group, which despite its size is surpassed when it comes to decoration by this very finely executed bottle. There are ten lions and six birds, decorated, engraved and perforated in a very relief and incredible way.
