The image shows a silver-colored halberd by an unknown artist titled "Halberd". The weapon has a long, thin, pointed blade with an engraved design. The blade is symmetrical, with a central line running down its length. The engraved design on the blade features intricate swirling patterns. A long handle extends downward from the blade. The bottom of the handle is not shown. Attached to the bottom of the blade is a curved, axe-like section with two crescent-shaped protrusions on either side. The axe-like section also features the same engraved design as the blade. The background of the image is a solid light gray color.
