The head is in the shape of a two-horned dragon's head with an open mouth, and the handle features a lizard. Belt buckle; height 2.1 cm, width 12.8 cm, depth 2.2 cm., A pale, translucent carved object rests horizontally against a neutral background, showing a smooth, milky white surface with subtle areas of pale yellow and cream. The carving features flowing, elongated forms with rounded contours and gentle hollows, including a raised central section and curved end pieces that suggest stylized heads or decorative terminals.
