Sword Guard

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Sword Guard, created by an unknown artist, is a circular dark-colored metal object with a marbled appearance. The object has a thin raised border around its edge. There are three cut-out shapes in the center: a clover-shaped cut-out on the left, a long teardrop-shaped cut-out in the middle, and an oval-shaped cut-out on the right. A stylized flower design is located at the bottom. The background of the image transitions from dark at the top to light gray at the bottom.
