About this work
Hollowed-out block model of an anchor buoy for cat anchors. It has an onion-shaped body with the point downwards and a flat top; it is held together by hoops, over which the ribs run on the outside. Two main ribs run across the flat top, where they form a cross. A harp closure is attached both above and below. Through a viewing hole one can see the inside, in which two decks have been installed. Scale 1:10 (derived).
