The artefact is sub rectangular in shape, with both short ends being incomplete. The long edges are rounded. One short end has the remains of a circular perforation in the centre, with an internal diameter of 1.7 mm. The other short end is gradually tapering in width. In the centre is a recessed panel with raised floral decoration. An eighted petalled flower is either side of a smaller six petalled flower. The reverse of the artefact has been recessed in places. A large rectangular recessed panel is behind the tapering short end and a short vertical slot is present more in the middle of the artefact.
