Pair of Sword-Grip Ornaments (Menuki)

Pair of Sword-Grip Ornaments by artist. Two gold and bronze-colored metal objects, symmetrical and identical except for being mirror images. Each object is shaped like a tapered triangle with a wide base and narrow tip pointing to the right. The base has three-dimensional curved folds resembling fabric or leaves. A gold-colored insect with wings is on top, near the tip. The surface has engraved patterns. The background is a plain light gray color.
