Description

A smooth, dark oval object with rounded ends, which the index term 'scarab' suggests is a scarab seal. Faint incised lines and a raised curved edge show on the upper and left parts, with a light highlight on the left side. The print is mounted on a pale grey card on a cream sheet, with a handwritten number label below.
