The ring is plain, with a round section, decorated with a spread acanthus leaf on each side. The head is rectangular, coffin-shaped, with a scrolling decoration at the top. The bottom conceals a hollow case, in which a pipe-like key is hidden. Moving on hinges, the case can be folded out of the head.
