A tall, standing figure with a conical headdress, large almond-shaped eyes and a small closed-mouth face, arms held down at the sides. It wears a belt and a short skirt-like garment, and the surface shows cracks and joins across the chest, arms and legs. It stands on a low rectangular base against a plain grey backdrop, with a number label at the lower right.
