The outer surface is decorated with a set of double chevron grooved lines criss-crossing over the surface of the frame. The inner surface has a circular perforation hole which would have permitted the attachment of a bag. The object is in fair condition and has a dark green patina.See Read (2001) Metal Artefacts of Antiquity, page 130, fig.907-909.
