It is a rectangular block of wood with a carved relief of the letter "E" (movable typeface). The relief is light orange with patches of dark auburn/brown. There is a area of light specks of black (looks like mould). The carved down portion is dark Burgundy with a layer of dust. Appears to have been wiped down but just spread the dust. The back is discoloured with dirt/grime and time. Covered in faded red, brown and black pigment.
