Description

A thick, irregular oval object, photographed straight on against a pale card. Inside a deeply recessed oval field, a small figure is cut in outline, with a head or upper body above several vertical strokes that suggest legs. Shadows from the upper left make the design stand out, and the rim is worn and uneven.
