Basket-Hilted Broadsword

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Basket-Hilted Broadsword by artist has a long, straight blade. The blade appears to be made of metal with visible signs of wear and aging. A distinctive feature is the hilt, which resembles a basket. This basket-like structure is made of metal and has a complex design with multiple curved and pointed elements. The hilt also features a rounded, domed top. The grip of the sword, visible through the basket hilt, appears to be made of a light-brown material, possibly wood or bone. The background of the image transitions from dark at the top to light gray towards the center.
