Height 3.3 cm; width 5.3 cm; depth 2.2 cm., A weathered, irregularly shaped stone with a rough surface showing a mix of brown and tan areas and lighter beige patches, featuring deep grooves and rounded protrusions that suggest layered textures; the stone rests against a smooth, pale gray background with a soft shadow to one side.
