Catalogue Note
Ce rare et ancien crochet - taillé à l'outil de pierre - se distingue par sa base à quatre pointes d'où émerge un personnage au corps résumé à une épure géométrique dont les angles supérieurs dessinent les épaules, et à une tête Janus aux traits caractéristiques. La coiffe est ajourée pour former un anneau de suspension. Très belle patine d'usage sur les parties sollicitées par le portage.
