It is a rectangular stone with one broken end, featuring a unique design on its surface. One face boasts two valves for buttons or pin heads in the shape of spirals. Each valve is deeply cut to a rounded point and has three concentric steps. A third valve's outline is barely visible. The central valve bears an etched image of a large ring.
