It is currently kept at the Museum of the Faculty of Archeology - Cairo University,under the number 1674- 51. Tjenti and his wife, Mers-ankh are shown sitting on one chair behind an offering table laden with different types of loaves of bread. Tjenti wears a kilt with a short wig, a false beard. He is extending his right hand towards the offering table in front of him, while his left arm is held across his chest, holding the kherep scepter, his wife wears a long wig, and a long tight-fitting dress. She embraces her husband with her two arms, only one line of hieroglyphic text is written above the scene.
