A small, irregular fragment of an Egyptian faience tile showing part of a recessed ornamental register and traces of turquoise-green glaze.

The object is a broken fragment with a curved top and flat base edge. One face preserves a moulded design: a central vertical element bordered by raised mouldings, and beneath it a rectangular/arched motif that resembles a cartouche-like or architectural panel with horizontal lines. The overall surface is covered by remaining turquoise-green glazed areas, with many chips exposing a brownish substrate. No clear royal name cartouche text, deity determinatives, or legible hieroglyphs are preserved. Small darker dots and linear moulding elements are visible as part of the ornamentation. At the bottom right, a small red ink/paint mark appears on the photograph, but it is not an ancient inscription. No Greek, Coptic, or Arabic text is visible.
