Ornamental Detail

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a gold-colored ornamental dagger titled "Ornamental Detail" by an unknown artist. The dagger has a long, thin blade with a pointed tip and a decorative handle. The handle is divided into sections, with the top section being the thinnest and featuring a ridged design. Below this section is a wider area with a sunburst design. Two wing-like protrusions extend from this area on either side. The middle section of the handle has vertical grooves and two raised rings. The bottom section tapers to a point and features a decorative forked design near the tip. The background of the image is a gradient that transitions from black at the top to gray at the bottom.
