Description
Calcedonio arancione tagliato piano-parallelo a sezione troncoconica, di forma ovale, lavorato a tecnica mista: abboczzo ottenuto con un trapano apunta sferica, mentre le zampe, le corna e le partizioni muscolari sono incise apunta fine. A bulino sono il muso e le giunture delle zampe. Lucidatura finale. Sulla superficie restano tracce di lavorazione. Il soggetto raffigurato è una gazzella accovacciata con zampa anteriore sinistra sollevata. Corpo tozzo, corte corna ramificate. Coda sollevata. Un ramo è raffigurato oltre l'animale.
