Two broken fragments of a blue-green faience ceramic tile with traces of molded linear borders and corner shapes; the central field is largely missing, and no clearly readable inscriptions are visible.

The image shows two adjoining or related fragments of a decorative tile, both with a turquoise/blue-green glossy surface consistent with faience. Each fragment preserves a portion of a molded design: there are beige/tan raised or recessed areas forming curved, vertical motifs at the left and right edges of the surviving field, and dark lines/stripes that resemble border bands. The main decorative field is broken away, leaving only partial geometry and the beginnings of larger motifs. The fragments are light blue-green overall with tan design elements; edges are chipped and irregular, indicating substantial loss. There are no legible hieroglyphs, cartouches, Greek, Coptic, or Arabic text in the visible portions, though small raised marks may be decorative rather than inscriptions.
