Aquamanile in the form of a lion Aquamanile in the form of a lion Lion-aquamanile, The object cast in cire perdue technique and then partially embellished, the details of which are extended, engraved or punched, has the shape of a lion. This one has a dragon on the back, which serves as a handle. The lion raises its head and opens the mouth so that four tusks are visible and the tongue hangs from the mouth. The eyes are made up of three concentric inwardly slightly higher ovals with a protruding hole as a pupil in the smallest oval. A square hole is cut in the head between the two protruding ears and the starting point for a hinged attachment of the missing valve can be observed. The object could be filled with water through the hole. Head, neck and the front part of the hull are covered with coarse moon and fur locks. The front legs of the animal are enlivened on the outside and at the back by four pairs of hair pieces each, the hind legs correspondingly by three sets of hair pieces. The legs end in claws, which are clearly cut out, the transition from leg to claw being indicated by a protruding edge. The dragon has turned its head with two ears and only one tongue. With his two front legs he leans on the fur of the lion. The tail of the dragon turns into a curl that ends in a five-leaf. Two hairpicks can be seen on the backside of the lion. The lion's tail has broken off. She was probably pointing up and was connected to the tail of the dragon. The valve on the lion's head is missing. A small gap between the fur locks on the chest is probably closed after the removal of the casting core. The left front leg may have been broken off. In 1982 the bent spout was restored and the right ear was re-soldered, beasts of prey, predatory animals: lion, Meester Bernhuser (attributed to), Koningsbergen, c. 1375 - c. 1400, copper alloy, engraving, h 34.5 cm × w 33.5 cm × d 14.5 cm w 31.0 cm × d 14.5 cm
