Description.

Carved stone sculpture depicting a turtle. The shell features a circular central cavity, probably intended as an inkwell, as well as two oval lateral incisions and archaic-inspired incised motifs, possibly reminiscent of writing or auspicious symbols. The surface displays natural patina and chromatic variation in greenish and greyish tones.

Size: 7 x 25 x 18 cm
