The sculpture is a cube-shaped box with relief carvings on its sides, depicting figures and possibly landscape scenes with intricate detail. It appears to be made of stone or metal, giving it a monochrome gray appearance with a weathered surface texture. The edges and corners are well-defined, with a raised border along the top edge. The sculpture looks substantial and heavy, indicating a robust construction. The reliefs suggest a narrative element, casting shadows for a three-dimensional effect.
