On the right you can see the artistically crafted inside of the Kapala (ritual drinking vessel). On the left is the "base" that turns the object into a turtle. Bronze cast by Nicola Kirchner, Ascholding (commissioned based on the clay model I made), the stylized butterfly is deliberately incorporated. It can be found in the structure of the base plates of natural tortoises, signed, size 23 cm, see also the image of the outside (skull), under search: Kapala.
