A circular earthenware sculpture features a raised, curving symbol resting on a multicolored lotus flower base. The off-white disk has a weathered, cracked surface, with reddish-brown clay exposed along its chipped perimeter. Faded red and green pigments accent the layered petals of the lotus. A thin metal wire frame encases the object, forming a hanging loop at the top. The bold central symbol dominates the relief, rising above the stylized flower.
