The image displays two metal artifacts mounted vertically against a plain, light-grey wall within a museum exhibit, likely behind glass, as indicated by multiple circular light reflections. On the left, a slender, silver-colored metal pin is shown. It features a spherical, ornate finial at its top, tapering downwards to a sharpened, slightly bent point at its base. Its surface reflects light, indicating a polished finish. On the right, a larger, bronze-colored, multi-segment metal ornament is presented. This artifact consists of three main joined sections. The uppermost section is an inverted trapezoidal shape with two small perforations at its top edge. Below this, a rectangular panel is connected by two hinge-like elements, displaying small rivets along its perimeter. The lowest and widest section is a trapezoidal panel, similarly connected to the middle section by two hinges and exhibiting rivets along its edges. Five small, inverted trapezoidal or bell-shaped metal pieces dangle from the bottom edge of this lowest panel, each suspended by a small metal loop. The surfaces of the bronze objects show variations in color consistent with patina. Both artifacts cast subtle shadows on the wall to their right. This display is located within the Museo Chileno de Arte Precolombino, situated in the city of Santiago, Chile.
