Description

Two wooden objects stand upright side by side on a pale, smooth surface against a light cloth backdrop. The left piece is a thick, roughly rectangular block with a weathered, pitted dark grey surface and an uneven top. The right piece is long and slender, tapering to a point, with paler grey wood and a visible knot on its face.
