Pin Head

The top of this pin is in the shape of a standing quadruped. The animal stands with forelegs joined and bent back to the top of the pin, hindlegs joined and bent forward, and all the legs connected in the area where the hooves or paws would be. There is an oblong opening between the fore- and hindlegs. The animal is very simple and stylized with few details. It has a small triangular head and snout. It has short backward-curving ears or horns. The torso is narrow and cylindrical (appearing slightly arched up), and it has an upward-curving tail. The circular-sectioned pin shaft is broken after 1.2 cm.
