Description

An irregular, torn fragment of thin sheet metal shown on a plain grey backdrop. The surface carries raised, embossed ridges and curved lines forming a symmetrical pattern, with a broad central element and a vertical band running down the middle. Dark mottled patches and bluish spots cover parts of the surface, and the edges are uneven.
