The object represents a detailed wooden sculpture of two eagles. The top eagle is perched dominantly on the back of the lower eagle, with its wings slightly spread and its beak open, giving an impression of authority or vigilance. The feathers are intricately carved with a scale-like texture, showcasing skilled craftsmanship. The lower eagle appears subdued or in a submissive posture, with its head bowed and beak closed, holding a cylindrical object in its talons. The base of the sculpture is a smooth, rounded platform that supports the two eagles.
