Grande armature à embouler en métal, qui prenait place sur la corne du taureau. Elle était maintenue à cette dernière par deux étaux à vis (l'un plus petit que l'autre). Une boule de corde maintenue par du fil de fer couronnait l'armature. Elle permettait d'amortir les chocs lorsque l'animal chargeait pendant les spectacles taurins. Les parties métalliques sont peintes en bleu, et on peut distinguer une couche plus claire en dessous.
