This is a building model on four legs. The model consists of a front part without walls and a central part surrounded by a rim with a cut edge. There is an entrance in the front part and a round window on the opposite wall. The model is covered with red slip, black and white paintings. Such a selection of colors is not accidental. Red, black, and white colors are the most common among tribes of the Cucuteni–Trypillia throughout their existence. It may symbolize the unity of sacred traditions. The composition of the painting, the elevation of the platform, and the lack of interior elements may indicate the modeling of a sacred building (temple). Such models might be houses for spirits or goddesses.
