Standing ushabti figure rendered in turquoise-blue glazed material, with a seated/raised wig and a human face beneath a headdress, holding offerings tools. Vertical inscription lines run down the torso/legs.

The image shows a single small standing shabti/ushabti-like figure on a light support base. The figure has a human head with a stylized facial expression, a tripartite-looking wig or headdress, and an apron-like garment covering the upper body. One or both arms are raised toward the chest/face area, with a hand holding or presenting an object that resembles a tool or emblem. The lower body is elongated and plain except for carved vertical inscription bands that run down the figure from mid-torso to near the feet. The surface is glossy with a turquoise/blue glaze typical of faience objects; edges and raised details appear worn but readable enough to suggest formal incision for inscription rather than complete pictorial scenes. No clear cartouche is visible in the provided view.
