Description | Flat style, like South Shields with a round object in her hand rather than the incense box. Arms out to sides, right hand open with palm forward. Mitten hands. Proper feet depicted - unusual for this form. Lots of detail worn away including drapery folds although perhaps was only present on the top as none is visible front or back. No details of face remain. |
