Round, flat, yellow-brown object with a raised design. The design features a man's head in profile, facing left, with a beard and mustache. He wears a headband. His hair flows behind him in a curved shape. The man's hair and clothing have several small, symmetrical, black designs. A small, curved white object is positioned above and to the left of the man's head. The background of the image is light gray. The object appears to be a Netsuke by an unknown artist.
