Naga Finial

Cleveland Museum of Art

Bronze finial in the shape of a naga head with a large face and a headdress on top. The object features a large central face with a serene expression and a crown-like structure on its head. Two smaller faces are on either side of the central face, each with similar features. The object has a weathered, green patina and a ridged edge around the top. The background is a gradient of dark gray to light gray, with a shadow cast by the object. The object has a wide top that tapers to a narrow base. The sides are curved and have decorative carvings. The object appears to be a ritualistic or ceremonial artifact.
