A light brown wood sculpture depicts a telephone pole standing vertically from a square base. The tall, cylindrical pole tapers to a point at its top. Near the peak, three horizontal crossbars of decreasing length extend outward, with the longest positioned highest. Each bar features thin notches carved into its ends. The object has a uniform, warm color and a smooth, polished surface throughout.
