Description

Two separate cut-out photographs mounted on a pale card show dark metal objects, each a rounded loop with a narrower stem ending in a small hooked curl. The upper loop has a stem that splits into two short arms, while the lower one has a single long tail. Handwritten blue notes are partly cut off along the bottom edge of the card.

Description, scan 2: A single metal object made of thin, round-section rod bent into an open loop with a rounded top and two lower arms that nearly meet in the middle. Both lower ends turn outward into small hooked tips. The dark, slightly pitted surface has lighter worn patches, and the object lies on a pale card with cut corners against a plain background.
Description, scan 3: A single dark bronze wire forms a large round loop at the top, with two arms that cross near the bottom and end in small hooked curls. The object is cut out and shown on a white card mount placed on a cream album page, with part of a neighbouring photograph visible at the left edge.
