Description :
The female figure is wrapped in a special fur that forms a niche-like frame. This kind of fur coat is to be compared with the coat of figure HADB no. 170. The medium-length, straight hair falls to the shoulders. The gaze, the half-open lips and the tilted position of his head give a melancholic expression. The hand is holding the fur at his chest.
Observation :Barthoux identified this character as an Asian female donor.
