The figure is shown in profile facing to the right, featuring detailed hair covered with a cloth, earrings, and a garment with intricate folds and patterns. The sculpture is made from a golden-brown material, possibly bronze or a similar alloy. The circular medallion has an unfinished edge with a hole for suspension, suggesting it could be worn or displayed. The image conveys dignity and nobility.
