Reverse description A finely detailed relief composition depicts the biblical scene of Noah and his family descending from Mount Ararat following the Great Flood. A group of robed figures fills the lower central field, one raising an olive branch aloft in celebration, while a dove bearing an olive sprig flies to the left. The twin-peaked silhouette of Mount Ararat rises majestically in the upper background. The Armenian legend 'ՆՈՅԻ ՎԱՅՐԷՋՔԸ ԱՐԱՐԱՏԻՑ' (Noah's Descent from Ararat) arcs along the upper periphery, and the design is bordered by a ring of beaded ornamentation.
