Pretty sure I've seen it before on other forums, basically the idea is you take a photo of something, and then crop it(so you can show the original image after people guess it) so you can only see a small part of something, but enough to hopefully realise what it is.

Whoever guesses the image right posts the next one, no idea how this is gonna pan out but figured it was worth a shot

here's an example, hope it's not too hard,

Hint: I'm using it right now.

For what it is, it's a vase/sculpture/cup artsy design thing, that you could get via your Domus subscription 20 years ago.

my first idea was a violin but i don't think that's a violin part. possibly a drum set but doesn't seem familiar there either... give us a hint!

If you are using the mask, the cartridges need to be replaced as the filters get clogged.
And it's needed working with aerosols or oil with strong fumes for an extended period. There are different ones for organic, inorganic compounds and particulate.
