Arrowhead (<i>Yanone</i>)

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The silver-colored Arrowhead by Yanone features a metal object with a pointed tip and a wide, flat base. The object has a long, thin handle and a wide, flat blade with a pointed tip. The blade is adorned with an etched design of a rooster or bird-like figure in the center. The handle features an etched design that extends from the base of the blade down to the bottom of the image. The background of the image is black, providing contrast to the silver-colored metal object. The object appears to be some type of arrowhead or spearhead, given its shape and size. The etched designs on the blade and handle are intricate and ornate, suggesting a high level of craftsmanship. The overall appearance of the object is one of elegance and sophistication, despite its functional purpose.
