Image shows a single green penannular (open-ring) earring/pendant form viewed against a white background.
The artifact is a small, broken-to-rounded open ring with a horseshoe-like (penannular) profile. The surface is predominantly green with hints of blue-green/azure staining, consistent with a glazed or mineralized surface. No attached ornament (e.g., beads or suspension loop) is clearly visible beyond the ring itself. The object appears photographed from the front, with both ends of the ring visible; edges are slightly chipped, suggesting age or excavation damage. No hieroglyphic, cartouche, or other text appears on the visible surfaces. No figures, deities, or royal names are identifiable from the image.
