Catalogue Note

A la beauté de la forme épurée répond ici la très grande rareté de la ligature à unique attache médiane. Voir Ginzberg (2000, p. 35) pour un appui-tête proche dans la collection Marc et Denyse Ginzberg, à multiples liens, et Oldman (Illustrated catalogue of Ethnographical Specimens, 1899, cat. 77, n° 32) pour l'unique exemplaire strictement comparable.
