Item Details

Description

Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 4th century CE. A fine pair of leaded-bronze terret rings used as fittings on horse drawn chariots. The terret secured and guided the driver's reins to the horse's bridle or harness so multiple lines would not tangle or snare. Both are shaped as a thick ring with a protruding rod, square plate, and a second loop for attaching to the harness. A lovely and aged exterior of green patina envelops this set ancient driving tack. Size of each (both are relatively similar): 3.5" L x 1.8" W (8.9 cm x 4.6 cm); 6" H (15.2 cm) on included custom stand.

Provenance: East Coast collection, New York Gallery, New York City, New York, USA, acquired before 2010
