Description

A pale head of a figure is shown in three-quarter view against a dark background. The tall headdress is decorated with carved fan-shaped leaves and scrolls, and a round disc with a knob and a curled element hang by the ear. Fine cracks run across the surface, and the neck breaks off at the bottom of the frame.
