Molded Appliqé Ornament

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Molded Appliqé Ornament by unknown artist is a gray, stone-like object with a flower-like shape. The object has a rough texture and appears to be made of a porous material. It has a rounded center and radiating lines that form petal-like shapes. The edges of the object are irregular and rough. The background of the image is a plain light grey color. The object is positioned centrally in the image, filling most of the frame. The overall appearance suggests an aged or weathered artifact.
