| Description |
This rotund little figure holds her hand to her
cheek, perhaps in a gesture of mourning. Placed
in a tomb centuries ago as a companion for the
deceased, she exudes a powerful aura of
feminity. A timeless evocation of fertility, rebirth
and renewal, she possesses a magic that is far
older than civilization itself.
