Dozens of tarnished silver spheres encrust the exterior of a thick, circular anklet. An interior band features a repeating diagonal, braided pattern. The silver globes, some dented and worn, form a dense, textured surface, culminating in a large cluster that projects forward. Dark gray shadows fill the crevices between the spheres, contrasting with the muted metal. The spheres radiate outward, obscuring the underlying structure with their crowded, spherical forms.
