Oval turquoise-blue glazed plaque with recessed hieroglyphic inscriptions, including a central serekh-like enclosure.

The image shows a small, horizontally oriented oval plaque with a glossy turquoise-blue glaze over a light body. The surface is inscribed in low relief with hieroglyphs arranged symmetrically around a central framed sign. A large, rectangular enclosure resembling a cartouche/serekh-like framework is prominent near the center; below it are smaller horizontal and vertical signs. On both left and right sides are additional vertical and bracket-like hieroglyphic forms, though the specific signs cannot be reliably read at this resolution. No human figures, animals, or deity iconography are clearly discernible beyond the hieroglyphs themselves. No Greek, Coptic, or Arabic text is visible.
