Handle, Zoomorphic Dolphin, Roman Dalmatia, 2nd-3rd Cent. AD

Ave!

Zoomorphic Dolphin Handle, Roman Dalmatia, 2nd-3rd Cent. AD

Copper alloy; 56mm/20.5gm (broken in half so double the size and weight for 'as unbroken').

Much too large to be Roman helmet 'carry handle' yet similar to A&L # AA.4.10.

Most likely, this was a handle for a box/cabinate or furniture pull from a wealthy Roman citizen that had the denarius to afford such a fancy item.

Rare/scarce in this condition and perfect for collectors.
