He holds an orb and cross in his left hand and a sword aloft in his right as he stands upon the legs of the vanquished Devil, who lies curved beneath his feet. The faun-like Devil has a horned head and goat's legs and hooves. His right hand points upwards towards the angel's right leg. His left hand rests on, or holds, below his head, the body of a curved snake that extends from behind the Devil’s left arm; its dog-like head in profile below the Devil’s own. On the back, inset into the coral in two places, are two damaged gold-alloy mounts (a hinge-plate, above, and a catch-plate, below; both broken and incomplete) for a vertical hinged brooch-pin, now missing. The hinge-plate has remnants of silver-copper alloy on top, probably silver solder.
