Description

A single corroded, dark metal object bent into a narrow loop: a rounded top with two long arms that taper to points at the bottom. The left arm is thicker, and the surface is pitted and rough with patches of lighter corrosion. It is photographed straight on against a pale grey background and fills most of the frame vertically.
