Description

A tall, standing figure with a cylindrical body, a rounded head with a cap-like headdress, a narrow neck and small ears. The arms hang at the sides with the hands bent forward, and a curved line marks the upper body. The grey-brown surface is mottled, with some cracks, and the rough, broken base stands on a pale surface.
