A circular bronze lid, aged with a dark brown and green patina, features a raised central handle shaped like two abstract, mirror-image forms connected by a loop. The handle sits within a medallion of swirling lines, surrounded by four concentric rings of a dense, repeating geometric pattern of interlocking square lines. Its textured surface transitions from these intricate inner designs to a smooth, dark outer rim.
