A loop of small oval faience beads arranged in a circle, photographed against a plain background.
The image shows a single strand of closely spaced, oval/elliptical beads forming a circular necklace/bracelet-like hoop. The beads are mostly whitish or very pale with patches of greenish tint on some segments, consistent with either whitish faience or faience with remnants of glaze. No sculpted figures, cartouches, or clearly legible hieroglyphs are visible; the decoration appears to be limited to glaze color variation on the bead surfaces. The overall object appears intact as a loop of beads rather than a carved amulet. No additional writing system (Greek/Coptic/Arabic) is visible.
