Dark green turquoise/blue faience ring fragment showing what appears to be part of an inscribed name or protective motif on the exterior.

The image depicts a small, concave, ring-like faience fragment with a dark green exterior and lighter blue-green areas where surface wear has occurred. The object’s inner curve suggests it is broken from a ring band. On the outer face, faint incised or molded details form a partial sign or letter-like curve; however, the exact hieroglyphic forms are not fully legible in the photograph due to wear, pitting, and surface loss. No clearly identifiable deities, full royal names, or cartouches can be confirmed from the visible portion. No Greek, Coptic, or Arabic text is visible. The inscription appears present but remains too fragmentary to reliably transcribe beyond noting it as a partial name/motif consistent with a ring fragment inscription.
