Description

Two flat metal axe blades stand upright side by side against a plain grey backdrop. The larger one on the left is somewhat longer than the smaller one on the right; both narrow towards a flat top and widen into a curved cutting edge at the base. Their surfaces look rough and pitted with corrosion, and the print sits on a pale card mount.
