Incised lines define the arms, pubic triangle, neckline, knees and spine. A groove separates the legs. The head is oval in shape which is flattened at the top and tilted back at a slight angle. A long, thin sculpted nose protrudes from the face. Made of marble the figure is stone coloured. A white surface deposit appears in patches, filling the grooves. A large patch of white can be found on the right-hand side of the chest. Some discoloration has occurred around the thighs where the material is grey in colour.
