The head is topped with a tall, flat topped cylindrical headdress with a red painted rim, above a long carved nose, incised eyes, and an open mouth. A looped ear ornament with a fringed tassel appears on one side of the face.
The torso is marked with a red painted band across the waist and a red painted spot on the abdomen. The legs are bent with the feet resting flat and forward, and vertical red striping runs down to the feet. The surface throughout is earth toned with scattered dark deposits, consistent with age and burial context, and shows no evidence of restoration.
