Fig. 301.—Bronze cock, the feathers represented by herring-bone pattern.
Figs. 302 and 303.—Elephant’s tusk formed as a trumpet. The mouthpiece on the convex side; with rattle. The loose pieces of the rattle carved out of the solid, through the oblong apertures. Ornamented with three bands of guilloche pattern; straight line diaper pattern, and degenerate mud-fish interlaced, in two places.
Figs. 304 and 305.—Portion of an iron staff, ornamented with bands of bronze, on which are figured human faces, leopards’ heads and bands of looped strands, similar to those on Figs. [139] and [140], Plate XXIII.
Fig. 306.—Thin brass head ornament for horse, and a broad band to go along the top of the head and mane. The figure on the lower part represents a crocodile, head downwards, ornamented with rows of copper rivets. The band for the head is ornamented with a floral ornament (floral guilloche) consisting of a sinuous stem with a leaf branching out of each curve, similar to that shown on Figs. [209], [238] and [278]. The whole of the ornamentation is in repoussé work, and is probably intended to be attached to leather.
Figs. 307 and 308.—Lower portion of an iron staff, surrounded by bands of brass, ornamented with leopards’ heads, frogs, looped strands and guilloche pattern.
