Sword Guard

Cleveland Museum of Art

The "Sword Guard" by artist unknown, depicts a circular dark brown object with a textured surface. Three oval-shaped holes are cut out from the center, one long and thin in the middle, flanked by two smaller ones. The surface features raised gold-colored designs that appear to be mountains, trees, and possibly a bird. The background of the image transitions from black at the top to dark gray at the bottom.
