Wooden headrest. The three support legs converging into a bun-shaped knot on a four-lobed chamfered base. One of the loop lugs has four ‘earrings’ of animal-tail hair, and there is a circlet of red glass beads below the knob. The pillow ends have deeply incised lines of triangles; there are two pairs of little marks on the pillow centre, and there is some pokerwork contrast.
