A small blue faience cowroid-shaped seal-amulett with an incised emblem-like design on one face.
The object is cowroid/bean-shaped and made of blue glazed faience. The face shows incised lines forming a central, roughly circular/rosette-like symbol with radiating or limb-like strokes beneath/around it, and a few additional horizontal/diagonal incisions. The reverse side is not visible in this image. No clearly legible hieroglyphs, throne names, or cartouches are discernible at this resolution; the markings appear primarily as an emblem rather than distinct readable Egyptian script. There is no visible Greek/Coptic/Arabic text.
