Kohl-stick

Cast, copper alloy kohl or antimony rod with a flat, slightly pear-shaped head, a similarly shaped eye cut out at the top and a small pentagonal finial at the apex. One side depicts a hare looking backwards; the other a six-petalled flower, and two smaller drop-shaped cartouches. None of the shaft survives.
