Disc of pale green faience, in the shape of a flattened bobbin. It has two sides decorated with floral motifs in incised relief, separated by a groove and pierced through the centre. The middle section fitted in a hole in the earlobe. The convex face is decorated with a series of lotus flowers, and the flat one with a daisy. This type of ornament appeared in Egypt during the 18th Dynasty, but seems originally to have come from the south, from Kerma to be precise.
