The female idol is seated on a chair without a backrest, from which one can see the two rear legs with a pattern of horizontal lines and the seat, which is decorated with a pattern of waves and parallel lines. The body is flat. The arm stumps are curved inwards; a hole for flowers or other attributes on each arm. The head develops from an elongated neck. The nose is sculpted, eyes and a spiral curl are painted. The head is crowned by a stephane, the front volute - see the Boeotian board idols - is missing. The plastically reproduced mass of hair is designed with vertical zigzag lines on the back and in the form of braids with horizontal lines on the front. A chain with a faded pendant runs around the neck. Eight horizontal zones divide the front of the robe: the shoulder has concentric semi-ovals followed by a double row of dots, then a vertical zigzag band, rosettes, vertical lines, again a vertical zigzag line with spirals, and finally a double row of points.
