Model of a Stupa
The object is a dark gray, possibly metal, model of a stupa. The bottom features a flat base with an etched design. Above the base is a large, rounded dome shape. A series of stacked, flat, rounded rings rise from the top of the dome, decreasing in size as they ascend. At the very top, a small, T-shaped piece protrudes. The background is a gradient of gray, transitioning from light to dark.
