Description

A heavily corroded silver object, its surface crusted and pitted, forms an irregular tangle of loops and rounded lumps. Several arms curve across the frame, with a bulbous mass at the lower left and a loose end at the right. It is photographed against a plain pale grey background and the print is mounted on a card.
