Cleveland Museum of Art

Dark gray, metal object with a flower-like outer edge. The object has eight rounded scalloped edges on the outside. There is a raised design around the edge of eight leaf-like motifs. The center of the object features a raised circle. Two raised phoenixes are on either side of the circle at the top. Two other animals are embossed below the phoenixes. Curled raised lines connect the phoenixes to the animals. A raised sphere protrudes through the circle. The object lies on a dark gray background. A shadow covers the left side.
