It is a rectangular block of wood with a carved relief of the letter "F" backwards (movable typeface). The relief is glossy/smooth as the original coat of varnish is still evident. The relief is a combination of light grey, grey, brown, dark blue and black pigment. The carved down portion is matte dark blue. The back is minimally discoloured and marked with faded dark blue and red pigment.
