这款精美的圣甲虫护身符由蓝釉陶制成，由三个单独铸造和细化的元素组成。两只精致的羽毛翅膀穿孔，可固定在中央自然雕刻的圣甲虫的两侧。圣甲虫的底部是平的，顶部穿孔，因此可以缝在木乃伊胸部的包裹物上，或纳入包裹当代木乃伊的珠网中。
长着翅膀的圣甲虫对古埃及人来说具有高度的象征意义，因为它代表着重生，与太阳神拉有关。人们认为太阳是由一只巨大的圣甲虫，也就是太阳神凯布利推过天空的，这个形象来自于对圣甲虫从粪便中孵化并用后腿破壳而出的观察。它们似乎是在自我创造的过程中从粪球中孵化出来的，这再次证实了它们与生命和重生的联系。这些物品在整个古埃及历史上都是一个神秘的象征。最早的圣甲虫护身符出现在第一中间期（约公元前 2124 年），在希腊和罗马时代（约公元前 332 年 - 公元 364 年）仍在使用。
