A brown wooden gavel accompanied by a rectangular wooden sound block with a gold metal plaque affixed to its top surface.
The plaque reads:

OFFICERS: LILLIAN TURNBULL PRESIDENT
MYRNA CLARKE, ALMA CLARKE, BETTY McKAY, PHYLLIS RANKIN, LORNA KEATING, WALTER CLARKE, RUBY GOODWIN
The gavel features a smooth cylindrical handle with a rounded end and a turned double-headed mallet, polished to a satin finish. The block shows light scuffing consistent with age and ceremonial use.
