A standing figure with a tall cylindrical headdress marked by incised vertical lines and long hair falling to the shoulders. A necklace with a central pendant and a round disc ornament sits on the chest, and the arms are folded with the hands resting on the body. The long plain garment narrows to a base with vertical folds, and the surface is worn and pale grey with a crack across the upper body. Blue pencil marks are visible on the surface, and the figure is shown against a plain grey background.
