The sculpture is a raised relief of a woman's profile. The woman is depicted with intricate detailing on her hair and attire, including curls and decorative elements in her hairstyle, a pearl necklace, and a richly draped garment with elaborate folds and embellishments. The material appears to be a metal with a dark, aged patina. The sculpture is a round medallion with inscriptions around its border. The detailing on the woman's clothing includes finely worked patterns. The relief captures her in a side profile.
