Halberd Head with Two Nagas Supporting Blades
The sculpture titled "Halberd Head with Two Nagas Supporting Blades" by an unknown artist depicts a dark-colored metal object on a circular base. The object features a long, ridged pole-like structure extending from the base and supporting a horizontal piece with two curved blades at the top. The blades are long and narrow with pointed tips. Two serpent-like creatures with heads and tails face outwards on either side of the horizontal piece. The creatures' bodies curve around the horizontal piece and connect to the base of the pole. The background of the image is white.
