Vrouwenfiguurtje van donkerblauw geglazuurd faience. De figuur is aan de voorkant gevormd, maar aan de achterkant plat en zonder opschrift. Dergelijke figuurtjes konden in graven worden bijgezet om de seksuele aspecten van wedergeboorte en het nieuwe ontluiken te stimuleren. Ze worden ook wel in huizen aangetroffen.
