A small greenish bronze/copper-alloy figure of a standing male deity with a plaited nemes-style wig and an Osiride beard, shown holding the arms at the chest.

The artifact is a freestanding, life-sized-to-small scale standing figure with a human torso and legs, wearing a headdress with a visible central stripe (suggestive of a nemes or Osiride head covering) and a short, prominent beard worn at the chin. The arms are posed across the front of the body, with hands near the upper chest. The surface is dark green to turquoise overall, consistent with heavy patination of a copper-based alloy. No clear carved inscriptions or readable hieroglyphic text are visible on the figure’s body or base in the provided image. There are no clearly legible royal cartouches. The catalogued subject is 'Osiris'; the combination of a seated/standing deity iconography with the characteristic beard and Osiride headdress is broadly consistent, though the image alone does not allow confirmation beyond general deity-statue features.
