Description

Two ring-shaped bands of dark metal lie side by side on a plain grey background. The ring on the left is incomplete, with a ragged, broken section at its lower right, while the ring on the right is more intact and smoothly curved. The surfaces look worn and slightly uneven, and a few small specks mark the background.
