From the Museo Egizio record
Part of a censer in the form of a papyrus flower. The fragment belongs to the distal part of the censer and is finely decorated to render the sepals. Two rectangular elements project from the top of the flower, one of which is broken, while the other has a hole, probably intended to receive the rivet used to attach the terminal part of the censer. Made in the lost-wax technique, the object is probably a hollow cast. Dimensions: 5.8 cm x 7.1 cm x 2.3 cm. Museum location: Museum / Floor 2A / Mezzanine / Cabinet 05 Metal / Shelf 03. Image views available: 2.
