The details of the face are incised, and the ears, nose and chin protrude. There is faded painted decoration visible on the chest to either side of the pendant, the back of the head behind the right ear, behind the right shoulder, as well as below the figure's left arm. The figure's right foot has been broken and repaired.

Several base and rim sherds have been glued together to reconstruct part of the bowl (part a), and a few smaller sherds for a section of the rim (part b). Parts a and b fit together.

Wooden feast dish (parts a-i) consisting of three large, deeply carved bowls (parts a-c), the whole forming a supernatural creature called a sisiutl. The bowls each sit of 2 sets of wheels that are loosely joined by mortise and tenon arrangements. The two end bowls (parts a and c) each depict the head and body of the serpent with a large protruding snout, carved eyes, ears and bared teeth. The middle bowl (part b) has a carved and painted human-like face on the sides, with two hands on the joins. Two large ladles (parts d-e) balance in the mouths of the sisuitl, projecting outward like tongues, held in by their handles. On top of the heads are four horn-like extensions (parts f-i), one at each end and two in the middle section. The bowl is painted with black, white, green, red and yellow design elements. There are holes in the overlapping slotted pieces for dowels (not incl. with dish).
