Plain and coiled bracelets, small finger rings with spiral bezels, and a necklace of rounded beads with a tubular bead at its centre are shown. Short dark cylindrical beads, a small engraved cylinder and crumpled foil-like metal fragments sit around them.

The larger seal, on the left, has ring-shaped caps at both ends and carved figures with rows of small marks on its body.
