Candle crown with Mary with Christ child, The object consists of an iron bar and an iron split pin and the following cast parts of yellow copper: the hanging ring, the figure of Mary with the crown riveted on her head and her riveted left hand with the Christ child, the trunk on which a convex plate is embossed at the top, and at the bottom an iron eye with two cams riveted (requiring the rod to be inserted), the lion's head with the pull ring, the collar. The more or less octagonal round hanging ring turns into an octagonal hollow pipe at the bottom. The Virgin Mary figure placed on the crescent moon is surrounded by a halo. Her dress and cloak are adorned with punched stars. The hair reaches from the back to the waist. The crown is composed of five fleurons. The hollow and spherical profiled trunk has a flattened spherical shape adorned between the two stanchions. The two stand rings each have eight notches, which are unnoticed or are marked on the top with one to seven points. Above the lower stand ring there is one of the three protrusions on which the collar must be placed. Two openings were drilled in the lower round, narrowing end of the trunk. These correspond to the holes in the somewhat oval attack of the lion's head. The lion's head covers the bottom of the trunk. In the lion's mouth hangs the ring, the ends of which are not riveted together. Through the trunk, the Maria figure and the hanging ring, the round wrought iron rod is inserted, which has a round flat end at the bottom and is provided with the slit at the top, through which the split pin is inserted. The round collar that extends upwards is profiled and also decorated with fine grooved rings. The Maria figure misses her right hand with the scepter, Mary standing (or half-length), the Christ-child sitting on her arm (Christ-child to Mary's left), vine-tendril, leaf, Barneveld, anonymous, Southern Netherlands, c. 1525 - c. 1550, brass (alloy), iron (metal), forging, w 37.0 cm × h 33.0 cm
