- A masculine ancestral statuette with balanced, angular volumes, and a face with wide, ringed eyes, a triangular pointed nose, and a small geometric mouth. A crenellation indicates a beard. Some elements recall Songye sculpture. Deep glossy patina, a crack, and an opening at the top of the head, suggesting that a fitting was meant to be attached there.
