This elegant female figure is depicted frontally, the face turned three-quarters and slightly inclined. On the head, thick hair adorned with a crown of leaves and ivy flowers. Some locks falling on the shoulders. The face is carved on the stone’s red-layer, while the neck, the short bust and the locks are engraved on the opaque chalcedony layer with honey tone. Very fine execution in high relief. Mirror polishing.
