Hi

I can't really add anything about this unusual piece. The incorporation of snake motifs is a bit intriguing...snakes seem to have excited human imagination throughout history, in mythology and folklore. Had a look at the excellent British Museum exhibition "The Book of the Dead" recently, and snakes featured prominently in Ancient Egyptian culture, both as negative and positive forces....
