This image depicts a conical-shaped object that appears to be made out of ivory or a similar light-colored material, held together with metal bands. These bands might be brass or another type of decorative metal, as they have an aged golden hue. The object has a series of metal reinforcements around the corners and edges, some of which have ornamental designs, and rivets that provide structural support and decoration. The top of the object has a rounded metal piece with an ornate 3-lobed clover-shaped design for either holding, lifting, or hanging the item. Immediately below this, secured to the object, is a long vertical metal element with a symmetrical curving design resembling foliage or vine-like motifs, which may serve a decorative function. In the center of the object, near the base, there is a prominent metal lock with a square cover and a keyhole, suggesting that the object can be secured. Directly above the lock, a metal handle is bolted onto the object, running vertically towards the top where it ends with a circular loop, likely for carrying or manipulating the item. The base includes small, rounded metal feet, allowing the object to stand upright with stability. The overall impression is of a ceremonial or high-value container designed to be secure and easily transportable, possibly for holding important documents or valuables. The craftsmanship indicates it could be an antique, possibly from a religious or royal context given the rich materials and intricate detailing.
