STATUETTE - Anthropomorphic figure in metal alloy, small scale, erect on an annular base. Slender and schematic body, head with voluminous headdress and distinct features; holds a possible drum close to the chest, in an attitude suggesting musical performance. Surface with rough texture, dark patina with golden reflections that accentuate the volumes. The stylization and certain formal features may refer to Dhokra productions from the Indian subcontinent.
