La forme effilée et élancée, dotée d'une tige haute et large avec un chapiteau nervuré surmonté de quatre courtes barres horizontales, percée à l'arrière pour la fixation. Le pilier Djed était étroitement lié à Osiris, et sa forme était interprétée comme représentant sa colonne vertébrale, suggérant la stabilité et l'endurance. Conférant ces qualités au défunt, ils étaient placés dans les bandelettes de la momie.
