Fragment of a russet monochrome hexagonal tile, in the shape of regular hexagon. Small portions of the front surface peeled, with the flaking of both slip and glaze. The red wash unevenly covers the front surface, leaving the sides unslipped, as a result they show an orangish colour. Moulded relief decoration representing a central equilateral triangle from which there sprout six shoots with buds, alternately bare or with two leaves at the base. The central motif is framed by a simple fillet.
