]]> The safety and security of the house was the concern of every family. A good door was accompanied by window guards. These had to be made of a hard, weather-resistant material such as iron. The grille shown here corresponds to a window in El Bonillo. The element is made up of a rectangle with 7 vertical bars and 4 horizontal ones that cross them. All of this is framed in a frame attached to the wall. At the upper ends of the frame there are two figures in the shape of cones, which are joined to another central figure with two spiral ornaments.
