This unique small size three quarter figure is very well carved with delicate facial features. She wears a flowing blue dress and at her neck is a striking necklace with a heart shaped pendant with a red jewel. Her flowing brown hair is well carved is also delicately rendered and continues down her left side. Some older paint remains. The photos do not do this figure justice and she looks better in person. The mounting rod which would have held the figure onto the stem of the ship is still present.
