Part a, the larger of the fragments, has at least six different rectangular designs repeat in oblique rows: two faces with coronas, two bird designs, one interlocked serpent and one triangulated design that appears to incorporate the bird tail. The rectangles are divided by longitudinal bands with variations of step-frets and serpent related imagery. The short transverse bands have a similar array of motifs that also repeat obliquely.

The two other holes are symmetrically placed at the ends and run obliquely from one narrow edge to the adjacent narrow edge.
