Rectangular fragment of a small faience object with a faded decorative/inscribed area on one face.
The image shows a small, roughly rectangular, vertically oriented artifact with rounded edges. The surface is light turquoise/greenish with speckling and patches of discoloration, consistent with a glazed ceramic. On the lower portion of the visible face there is a poorly preserved circular/oval motif containing vertical and curved light-colored elements; elsewhere the surface appears largely unpatterned or too eroded to read clearly. No clear cartouche, royal titulary, or legible hieroglyphs are visible, though the circular motif may be part of a larger decorative or votive design. No inscriptions in Greek, Coptic, or Arabic are apparent. The overall appearance is consistent with a fragment from a faience votive bracelet, though the exact bracelet form and complete motif cannot be reconstructed from this single fragment.
