Palette for cosmetics in the shape of a truncated diamond. Hewn from an opaque quartz, the colour of which varies from beige to dark red, its lengthwise cross-section is slightly curved. This type of artefact was used to grind green (malachite) or black (galena) cosmetics, traces of which are often found on such objects, but it is not the case here.

Palette à fard en forme de losange tronqué. Taillée dans un quartz opaque dont la couleur varie du beige au rouge foncé, elle est de section longitudinale légèrement courbe. Ce type d'artefact était utilisé pour broyer les fards de couleur verte (malachite) ou noire (galène), dont on retrouve souvent les traces sur l'objet, ce qui n'est pas le cas ici.
