A rectangular dark-wood panel covered in intricate carvings and light-colored inlays is divided into three sections. On the left and right, squares enclose circles framed by rope-like borders. In the center, three stylized, elongated trees stand amidst dense geometric patterns. A border of tiny triangles frames the entire board. The side edges are jagged with rectangular protrusions, and a small rectangular slot is cut into the top center.
