The bulb-shaped plaque with a multifoil top encloses a medallion in the centre of its lower section. The medallion is inscribed with a Hebrew dedicatory inscription, framed by a protruding round strip with wavy rims and by a strip of petals. The inscription, written on paper in six lines in square, linear letters and covered with glass, reads:
"זה/ הקדיש הר' יצחק/ המ' (המכונה) בכור צרפתי הי''ו (ה' יחיהו וישמרהו)/ שנת התרמ''ט ליציר' (ליצירה)/ יזכה לשנים רבות/ אמן/ כי''ר (כן יהי רצון)."
"This )plaque( was dedicated by the Rabbi Isaac known as Bekhor (first-born son) Zorfati, may the Lord sustain and protect him. The year 5649 (1889) for the Creation, may He grant him for many years, amen, may it be His will."
The medallion is mounted over a symmetrical scrolled stem, while the upper part of the plaque is decorated with small open flowers.
A suspension loop with a ring is attached to the top of the plaque. An additional loop for chains and bells is at its lower left side.
