An ancient Egyptian sculpted head of a youthful female figure, shown frontally with closed lips and stylized almond-shaped eyes.
The object is a rounded, carved stone head fragment with short, straight hair/possibly a cap or wig rendered in smooth contours. The face has arched brows, almond-shaped eyes with defined lids, and a calm, closed-mouth expression. No clear royal insignia (e.g., nemes headdress) or readable facial inscriptions are visible. The surface shows mottled wear and discoloration consistent with age and/or cleaning. The background is a neutral studio setting; a small modern support is visible beneath the fragment. No hieroglyphic, Greek, Coptic, or Arabic text can be seen on the visible surfaces.
