The sculpture portrays a coiled snake with detailed scales carved into the material, resting on a textured base that resembles a natural surface. The material appears to be metal, likely bronze, with a polished brown surface that reflects light. The sculpture captures the essence of a snake in a compact form, with its body twisted over the base.
