Statuette of female, right arm missing as is left hand, eyes originally inlaid. Remains of colouring, black for wig and hair. Crack down back of wig. Stands on a base (with statuette), originally suggested as being on wheels, however this looks to be the dowel method to hold the base together which consists of two pieces of wood. Unclear how contemporary base is to statuette, looks later.
