A banner pole features a slender shaft of nearly black wood, shifting to a striated reddish-brown near the top. A gray metal head with a leaf-shaped blade crowns the piece, joined by a cylindrical collar with raised rings. The shaft descends vertically, tapering at the base to a small metal point. Its simple form highlights the contrast between the matte, weathered metal and the deep, polished tones of the wood.
