Bronze lion paw
Not on view
Form of a lion's paw with four toes; at back, rectangular socket with remains of iron. This paw, along with 74.51.5568, was long considered part of a rod tripod. Recent study has revealed that they belong with a paw now in Berlin and that all three probably come from a piece of furniture, such as a three-legged table (note the terracotta example, 74.51.1790) a support, or a
candelabrum.
