A miniature glass amulet depicting a human head. The face is beige-coloured, and the head has been adorned with a blue hat. The hat contains white and yellow swirls, and these colours were probably mixed into the blue glass as the object was being created. There is a small hole at the upper tip of the hat, likely created so a necklace or chain could be threaded through. One eye is blue, created from the same glass as the hat. The back of the amulet is slightly concave. (On a stone and metal mount.)
Thousands of small beads threaded onto ten separate strands (parts a-j). Beads include several discs that are white, clear, and terracotta in colour. There are two elongated beige beads, and a few white balls, however, most are steatite or shell in a mixture of dark grey, light grey, black, white, and brown colours, and similar in shape. The beads have been threaded onto loops of black fishing line, making ten strands of similar size, probably holding about three hundred beads each.
