Body Ornament

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The artwork titled "Body Ornament" by an unknown artist depicts a reddish-brown, roughly shaped object with a distinctive form. The object features a rounded top section with a circular hole in the center and a protrusion on the right side. A long, narrow handle extends downward from the bottom of the rounded section, featuring an elongated oval hole. The surface of the object exhibits visible cracks and a weathered appearance, with the top being predominantly reddish-brown and the handle transitioning to a darker brown color. The object is set against a solid gray background.
