| Description |
|
Female Hehe figure with an old dark brown patina.
The ears are large and semicircular. There are holes in both ears which would have presumably had earrings in them. The arms are held away from the body, one pointing forward and one to the side. There are two strings of ornage glass-beads around the waist. |
