An exercise in descriptive verbiage.

The base roughly one fifth of the total height of the object, and sil­ver in col­our. It has the reflect­ive qual­ity of dull metal and a very slightly rough vis­ible tex­tur­ing. The width of the base is approx­im­ately half again the width of the rest of the object. The edges of the object appear ver­tical, there is some slight curvature where the base meets the upper por­tion sug­gest­ive of one cyl­in­der on top of another.

The upper four fifths is mostly trans­par­ent, though there is a line of green that runs from near the top down to at least the begin­ing of the base, this line is not per­fectly straght it curves slightly in all vis­ible dir­ec­tions while remain­ing uni­form in its width. The green line appears to be smoothly tex­tured at first glance, but on closer inspec­tion there are small dark brown lines extend­ing from the sur­face of the green in a sparse, yet, uni­form pat­tern. Near the upper most ter­min­a­tion of the green line the col­our is much darker, near­ing brown. As the line nears the bot­tom of the object it becomes much lighter. The green is quite vibrant, it seems even more so in con­trast to the dull base sec­tion of the whole object. At one point in the trans­par­ent area there is a hori­zontal break where the shape changes from being only very slightly refract­ive to fairly heav­ily refract­ive of the objects behind it. The curved green line appears to break at this point and begin again slightly to the left of its break­ing point and slightly thicker where it is below the intersection.

Connected to the upper most extreme of the green line there is an orange down­wards point­ing near-conical shape sim­ilar to an upside-down, imper­fect, poin­ted arch. The orange area has some light vis­ible tex­tur­ing, like long tiny wrinkles. Similar to the green line, this orange object is darker at the top than at the bot­tom, but this is not quite as not­ic­able of a dif­fer­ence. It is equally vibrant in nature. near the top por­tion of the orange — the widest part of the con­ical shape — there appears to be more vis­ible shad­ows, as though the shape had to be fol­ded in some way to take its cur­rent pos­i­tion. The top level of the whole object is not per­fectly level or smooth, there is another hori­zontal line that is far less defined that the one men­tioned erlier, and slightly above that there is the ter­min­at­ing edge of the orange area. The orange has sev­eral more vis­ible folds and extends in a slightly ragged man­ner approx­im­ately one mil­li­meter above the slightly defined hori­zontal line. The entire object is approx­im­ately eight inches tall in total.

  • I would sug­gest begin­ning your descrip­tion with the size and rel­at­ive shape of the object, and then describe the num­ber of divi­sions and rel­at­ive size of them, before going on to col­ours and textures.
