Technical Observations: The patina is generally brown with scattered red and green. The surface is moderately pitted, and there is evidence of extensive mechanical corrosion removal. Most of the interstices in the crown have been cleared of corrosion products and burial accretion. Two areas remain uncleaned. The petal immediately above the face has three very small flecks of what appears to be gold. The statuette is a solid cast. Both feet are missing.
