Anchor with Wrapped Rope in Black and Grey

A classic nautical anchor with a ring at the top and a rope that wraps around the shank and stock, its frayed end trailing past the flukes. The piece is built in black and grey, using fine stippled dot work for the gradients and soft shading that give the metal and rope a worn, dimensional look. Clean outlines and tight texture keep the design crisp and readable.
