Description

Two long, corroded metal nails lie side by side, each with a flattened, broadened head at the top and a tapering shank ending in a point. The left nail is longer and slightly bent near its tip, while the right one is shorter and thinner. The surfaces are dark with encrusted patches, and the nails are shown against a pale grey mounted card with a faint torn edge at the right.
