Sword Guard

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a sword guard titled "Sword Guard" by an unknown artist. The guard is circular and made of dark metal with a weathered appearance. The central feature is an oval-shaped hole with a teardrop-shaped opening in the middle, flanked by two smaller rounded rectangular holes. Above the oval hole, a carved floral design spans the top, while a carved leafy branch extends from the right side towards the top. The background of the image transitions from black at the top to gray at the bottom.
