Ornament1373/47

Round, convex, white-brown carved and coloured object with a zigzag border encompassing it. The main body consists of a circle divided in a tic-tac-toe manner by two sets of parallel lines. The centre square has a diamond shape carved in it, with four more diamonds carved in the squares adjacent to the central diamond's four corners. The four corner squares in the tic-tac-toe arrangement each have a right angled chevron-shape carved so that, taken together, the four shapes appear to be the corners of a square. All of the shapes are coloured with double, grey, thick, pencil-like lines and are deeply carved, creating negative space around them. The top of the object features a protruding, angular design with two small carved circles and a small triangular hole at the apex.
