The Biting Horse Head lamp is another work by Nicholas' favorite ceramicist, ND Dolfi. If the house burned, it would be the first thing that he would take with him! The devil head is from a flea market in New York. The boxes are gifts that the couple have received from friends over the years. The snakes are part of a display of Venetian bronze creatures found around the house. The bronze vase dates from 1920. It was a gift to Nicholas's great-great-grandmother...supposedly from a lover in Japan.
