A vertically oriented manuscript page on warm tan paper features fourteen lines of flowing black Persian script. Thin borders of gold, blue, and orange frame the central text panel, with a narrow horizontal band at the top containing a single line of script. The paper's left edge is irregularly torn, and four circular holes are visible along the right margin.
