About this work
The object made from sheet metal consists of a hexagonal high reservoir, on which a convex closure is brazed, with a hook with an eye on top, in which an iron hooklet is placed. On one upright side, a connecting piece open from above is attached, onto which the broken tube part fits. In the bottom, in the center, a round recessed hole, through which the object can be placed on a rod.
