Sticker at the top (fluorescent green):
Text reads “INSANE WORLD TOUR” in English. Below it is an Instagram handle: @guotman.
The image is a stylized Mesoamerican/Aztec-style face mask.
Sticker in the middle (white circular one):
Spanish text around the edge: “SALVEMOS LA RIO TINTO” (“Save the Rio Tinto”).
This is in Spanish and refers to an environmental protection campaign for the Río Tinto (a river in Andalusia, famous for its reddish color from mining).
Symbol on the cast iron pipe (embossed design)
The metal part shows a floral rosette motif with a central circle surrounded by petal-like shapes. This is a traditional decorative cast-iron pattern, widely used in 19th–20th century Spain for drainpipes, fences, and urban furniture.
