Description

A carved stone head shown in profile facing left, with wavy hair drawn back under a band and a rounded ear visible. The face is worn and pitted, especially on the cheek and chin, and the head rests on a short neck above a square block base. A scale bar and a small card with a number label are placed against the base, and a dark object sits at the lower right corner against a plain grey backdrop.
