This medium-sized high-back chair takes the form of a tall, elliptical backrest and circular seat supported by three slightly V-shaped legs. Running down the rear of the back support is a central raised ridge, while the front of the backrest bears the unusual feature of lines of inscribed Ge'ez script. There is an early missing section to the edge of the seat, as shown in the photographs.
