Dagger (Piha Kaetta)
The Dagger (Piha Kaetta) by an unknown artist features a curved handle made of light-colored material, likely ivory or bone, with dark brown engravings. The handle has a rounded end with a small metal point. The base of the handle and the bolster are made of intricately designed metal, likely gold and bronze. The blade is long and narrow, tapering to a point, with a gray metal surface showing signs of wear and some dark spots. The background of the image is a plain light gray color. The dagger's overall design suggests it may be of traditional or cultural significance.
