Description

A tall, slender terracotta figurine stands upright on a flared circular base, with a tapered head that ends in a beak-like point and a short projection on one side of the body. The greyish surface looks worn, with no paint visible. It is photographed alone against a pale backdrop, with a number label at the bottom edge of the card mount.
