Standing Egyptian female figure holding an attribute, shown as a small statuette on a dark studio background.
The object appears to be a small, vertically oriented standing statuette with a narrow, elongated body and a human head. The figure has a round face with forward-looking features and a headpiece/hat-like headdress. The body is simplified and smoothed, with arms held close to the torso; one hand/side appears to hold a small object, but the exact attribute is unclear at this resolution. No clearly legible carved inscription or cartouche is visible on the visible surfaces in this image; any name text cannot be confirmed. The surface is worn/abraded, with patches of darkened patina and lighter areas from erosion. The overall coloration in the image is more brownish/earthy than pale green; however, the catalogue specifies pale green hedenbergite quartz. Visible material/finish looks like stone with a weathered surface rather than metal or ceramic.
