About this work
The twice bent arm ends spirally on one side, on the other side in a more or less square thickening with a hole provided with a screw thread, in which the hourglass holder is placed. The arm is provided with a round eye, which can be attached in a pin of the (missing) fixing part to the pulpit. The holder has six balusters.
