This door handles in the shape of an dragon’s face were found in Wolji. The wide eyes and sharp protruding teeth create a dynamic air. The round handles were hung from the mouth. Since these door handles are so similar in both size and shape, it seems likely that they were both cast from the same mould and plates.
