Description

An open ring of heavy round-section metal, with its two ends modelled as animal heads that face each other across the gap. Each head has prominent ears, large eyes and a ridged collar at the neck, and the body curves into a wide loop with a shallow dip along the lower side. It is shown in a close view on a plain grey background, with a number label in the lower right corner.
