Close-up photograph of an ornate copper-toned ritual object against a bright white background, shot from below. A long curved copper and silver handle rises diagonally from a square copper base with a decorative ringed knob, wrapped with cords. At the top, a flat copper plate with a carved trefoil-like outline holds a bundle of red and orange cloth, with a thin curved blade-like element crossing it.
