Unfinished ossuary has inner ledge on two sides and low feet. Lid is missing. Ornamentation, on the chest's front side, consists of two metopes in a zigzag frame, unfinished at base, and a large, short-stalked lily on five steps replacing a triglyph, incised in freehand high above the frame's base. Each metope contains a six-petalled rosette within concentric line circles; inscription appears above the right-hand one.
