Dagger (Katar)

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Dagger (Katar) has a gold-colored metal frame with a rectangular shape and two long, thin prongs extending from the bottom. The frame has two horizontal bars across the middle. Two long, thin, pointed blades extend from the bottom of the frame, symmetrical and parallel to each other. The blades are made of a darker metal than the frame, likely steel, and have a sharp point at the end. The background is a light gray color.
