Description

A single dark object with a rounded outline and a large open centre is shown against a pale background, mounted on a cream card. Its upper part is a rounded band, while the lower section is thicker and has a rough, mottled surface. The print is soft-focused, so the edges and surface detail are hard to make out.

Description, scan 2
A single heavily corroded object with a dark, pitted surface forms a thick rounded ring around a large pale opening. The lower edge is flatter and more broken than the top, which looks rounded. The object is shown against a white card mount with a cream border, and a handwritten mark is partly visible at the right edge.
