Hispania Figural Items

"Figural items" are catalogued here as distinct from free-standing animal and bird ornaments. Generally speaking, figural items were not strictly ornamental but made for some particular and practical function (e.g., table base, bookend, etc.) and in which the figural constitutes part of the central form of the item itself as opposed to being a mere decorative accent upon it.
