Lead Sprinkler (Torture)
At first sight, it looks like a holy water sprinkler, but in reality it's a bit more complex. The torturer poured molten metals in one end and its contents slowly rushed to the other side where they fell on any part of the victim's body. Many executions occurred with this instrument.
A common way to execute a victim was by pouring molten silver on his eyes. This caused a great deal of pain and eventually provoked death.
