Description

A single object lies on a plain grey backdrop. It is elongated and heavily encrusted, with a pitted, rough pale surface and a crack running across the middle. At the right end is a rounded head with two projecting shapes, and several stubby projections along the lower edge may be legs; the left end appears broken.
