From the receding raised front, two points of a dentil molding are carved, which are decorated with a symmetrical ornament, formed by a splitting branch, the ends extending into a triple leaf motif. The front is covered with green lead glaze. Back wall largely broken off. See also fragment BK-BFR-429-2.
