The image shows a close-up of the handle of a sword. The handle is made of wood and has an intricate design carved into it. The design is made up of swirls and curves, with a central motif in the center. The wood appears to be aged and weathered, with some areas of the wood having a rough texture. The blade of the sword is visible in the bottom right corner of the image, and it is resting on a clear acrylic stand. The background is dark, making the handle stand out.
