The head is relatively large and has simple facial features. The ears are set high, the eyes are round and protruding, as is the large nose. The mouth is small and set low. The neck is short and the shoulders are narrow. There is a hole in the wood on the left shoulder, as if something had once been inserted there. Starting from this hole, a crack runs through the wood to the chest. One breast can be seen as a small sphere. The other breast is missing, replaced by another hole in the wood. The arms are also missing. The belly is slightly curved outwards. The navel and female genitals are depicted. The legs are relatively short and straight. The feet are only roughly carved. The object stands on a light-coloured wooden pedestal, which was added later.
