The carvings of the stone are in the runestone style Pr 5 (c. 1100-1130) pertaining to the late Urnes style.

Though the inscription is not signed, it is attributed to the runemaster Öpir for stylistic reasons.

The granite stone is c. 1,32 m tall and 0,99 m wide.

Runic inscription

The rune text begins at the tail end of the animal.
