The top section has been filled with white chalk, while the bottom section has been shaded with dark charcoal. The lower large hole has been completely shaded with dark charcoal.

In this small painting, a mussel shell rests inside a clam shell. The inner sides of both shells are visible to the viewer. The clam shell is light in color. Its hinge touches the left side of the canvas. The mussel shell is darker in color, and much of its visible inner side reflects its characteristic pearlesque luster.
