Getz-Gentle describes how the lugs of kandiles, named after the hanging lamps found in Greek Orthodox churches, were perforated from both sides and on occasions the drilling was not aligned precisely enough, more often on smaller examples, resulting in the need for re-drilling as shown on this example. The size of perforation remained the same regardless of the size of the vessel and the lugs.
