A small, turquoise-blue faience plaque with an incised/raised animal form resembling an ibex, set within a recessed border.

The image shows a plano-convex plaque-like object in deep blue/turquoise faience, photographed against a light background. The central motif appears as a dark, outlined animal body with pointed head and curved horns, consistent in general appearance with an ibex. The motif is enclosed by a raised or incised frame/border, and the lower edge shows a straight band that may be part of the plaque’s base or additional decorative register. No legible hieroglyphs, cartouches, or other inscriptions are clearly visible at this resolution; only the animal imagery and bordering elements are apparent. Surface wear and small chips/flaking are visible, especially near the edges.
