An attachment can be plate-shaped or cylindrical:
- The fitting -like plate-shaped attachments (for example also Kreuzattaschen ) have one or two ring-shaped eyelets for receiving the handles or handles (1, 2-5 ).
- In the case of roller-shaped attachments, the handle ends snap into funnel-shaped or hole-shaped depressions on the sides of the roller ( 6 ).
Attaschen are manufactured as individual parts and later permanently connected to the vessel.
Attaschen can be designed simply, i.e. only appropriately ( 3 ), or they can be decorated. Commonly used decorations are:
- Ornaments, for example in palmette bags ,
- Human or animal heads ( protomes , 4-5 ).
