ROMAN BRONZE APPLIQUE TERMINAL IN THE FORM OF A DOUBLE RAM’S HEAD.
Roman period, ca. 1st – 3rd century AD.
Cast bronze applique or terminal element in the form of two confronted ram’s heads. The horns are rendered in bold, spiral relief, while the facial features are stylized and compact. The modelling is solid and slightly simplified, characteristic of Roman decorative metalwork. The piece may originally have served as a decorative fitting for furniture, a vessel handle terminal, harness equipment, or a ritual object. The ram motif was widely used in Roman art, often associated with strength, protection, and occasionally Dionysiac symbolism. Intact, with stable green patina and minor surface encrustations.
Diameter 19.5 mm Weight 4.14 g.
