Description

A blurred grey-toned photograph of a small stone object mounted on a pale card with a wide border. The object is elongated and lumpy, with a darker rounded end on the left and several horizontal bands of light and dark across its body. Its surface looks worn and its outline is hard to read, so the scarab identification cannot be confirmed from this image.
