This is a carved stone ornament shaped like a fancy scroll. The top curves into a fan-like shape with pointed leaves, and two swirls hang below like teardrops. The whole thing sits on a flat base, looking like it could be part of a bigger building or piece of furniture. The detail in the carving shows how carefully the artist shaped each leaf and swirl. It’s hard to tell what this was originally made for, but the craftsmanship is precise. Look up Victoria and Albert Museum to see more objects like this.
