The sculpture features intricate decorative designs with figures resembling mythical creatures. At the top is a human-like face with flowing details around it. Below are two smaller symmetric figures with human upper bodies and tails facing each other. The main structure has ornamental swirl patterns with a shell-like motif at the center. The sculpture is made of a metallic material like bronze, with a weathered appearance. It could serve as a decorative element, such as a keyhole escutcheon or plaque, due to its perforated design and structured form.
