Crossbow Bolt

Cleveland Museum of Art

Crossbow Bolt by unknown artist. Metal tip, triangular in shape with a pointed end. The metal tip is attached to a wooden shaft. The wooden shaft is cylindrical and appears to be made from a single piece of wood. There are two small, triangular protrusions on the shaft near the end, likely fletching. The fletching appears to be made from wood or another rigid material. The entire bolt is set against a solid gray background. The bolt is positioned horizontally. The metal tip is on the left side. The fletching is on the right side.
