The sculpture depicts a standing male figure wearing an elaborate headdress adorned with feathers. The figure is also dressed in a short tunic and cape, with one arm resting by his side and the other arm holding an object. The sculpture is painted in various colors, with notable use of earthy flesh tones for the skin, and reds, greens, and golds for the clothing and headdress. The figure stands on a square plinth that mimics the look of stone. The statue is of a life-like size relative to a small or medium-sized sculpture rather than being life-sized or larger. The material appears to be wood, indicative of the detailed carving and natural texture visible in the sculpture.
