The image shows a wooden woodworking tool, likely a marking gauge, centered horizontally in the frame. The tool is brown with wood grain, on a light beige background. It has a screw knob on top and a flat metal blade extended vertically at one end. The longer side of the tool runs from left to right, with the knob and blade visible on the right side.
