The sculpture features two figures elegantly carved in a rectangular relief. Both figures are adorned with flowing garments. The sculpture depicts two female figures, one with foliage in her hair, and the other holding what appears to be sheaves of wheat. The figures are in a dynamic posture, with one holding a basket or drapery between them. The sculpture is rendered in a monochromatic dark tone, possibly a dark metal or stone like bronze or a dark patina. There are highlights where the material catches the light. This creates a contrast against the dark background, highlighting intricate details of their clothing and features. The figures are depicted with elegance and movement, conveying a lifelike vitality in their stance and flowing garments.
