Braided object made from yellow, white, red and dark blue wool yarn. Central braided loop with three pompoms attached at equidistant intervals. Attached to each pompom is a length of braided yarn splitting into two braids at the bottom; the point at which the braid splits and the bifurcated ends of the braid are all have pompoms.
A wooden doll-like figure, attached to a wooden stand by her feet, bending over a seal. The figure stands bent over the animal, almost touching nose to nose. She is carved with black-painted hair in the form of a bun, which is decorated with a beaded string. She wears a light blue coat lined with dark fur with a multicoloured plaid ribbon around the waist; she holds an ulu in her hand. The pants are made of skin with light coloured fur, and the boots are orange leather with white lining at the top decorated with red, blue, green, and yellow squares. The light coloured, furry animal is lying on its back underneath, between her feet. Attached is a red, white, and black circular label which reads "Eskimo Handicraft. Made in Narssaq Greenland".

The narrow part of the dish has a small knob protruding from its base and has a pierced hole where white-yellow strands of sinew extend to the ulu. The ulu is made entirely of off-white bone with a T-shaped handle, and is pierced with a hole and strung with sinew connecting it to the dish.
