A round mouth hole is positioned at the centre of a flat raised diamond-shaped lip plate at the side towards the top. The body is solid above mouth hole. A stylised human head carved at the proximal end with long ears protruding upwards, one of which is missing. A circular lateral hole passes through the nose.
