Description, scan 2
A grey-toned photograph mounted on a pale card shows a necklace of many round, ribbed beads forming a V shape, ending in a flask-shaped pendant with a cap, a narrow neck and a small drop below. Above the necklace lies a flattened oval object with a raised central ridge. Handwritten number labels sit under the objects, and a partial view of another object with coiled or ringed forms appears at the right edge.
