The object is a wooden panel with a trapezoid upper part, bearing the portrait of a woman. The face is schematically indicated, with very large eyes and heavy eyebrows, a rudimental nose and lips. The top of the head is triangular, probably dictated by the shape of the panel. There are faint traces of a kind of wreath. The hair is dressed in small curls across the forehead. The earrings consist of four beads and an L-shaped element. Two wrinkles are indicated on the neck. The woman wears a wreath-like necklace with a round pendant. The garment is decorated with two black stripes over the shoulders.
