The goddess wears the characteristic Lower Egyptian crown. The thickness of the back pillar suggests that the head once belonged to a seated figure of the goddess. The facial traits are dominated by the eyelids in relief, the small nose, and the faintly smiling mouth. The ears are set close to the back of the head.
