Funnel-Shaped Mount

Roman

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 301

This object may have been the central decorative element of the yoke of a ceremonial chariot. Objects of similar shape have been found with ensembles of yoke and harness ornaments, such as the adjacent pieces in this case, suggesting that this piece too may have been part of a larger group of enamels.
