Handle Prince
Ornamentation of a Celtic tubular jug made of bronze
Date: around 330 BC
Place of discovery: burial mound near Waldalgesheim, Rhineland-Palatinate.
Location: Bonn, Rhineland Regional Museum
In the richly furnished burial mound of a noble Celtic lady, a bronze tubular jug was discovered alongside luxurious gold jewellery. Its handle attachment is decorated with a bearded man's face. The two formations on his head are reminiscent of the mistletoe-leaf crown of the Celtic prince from the Glauberg.

The medieval interlace patterns of the British Isles are today considered typical of Celtic art, but the "Early Celtic Art" of the Latène period experienced its flowering on the European continent as early as the late 5th century BC.
The motifs on our bookmarks come from sensational finds, mostly from Celtic princely burial mounds. They are printed on imitation rawhide made of strong paper and can be coloured with both crayons and felt-tip pens.
In a protective cover with decorative ribbon, the colourful works of art become a hard-wearing bookmark.
