    The statuette, crafted from colourless, green, and blue crystal, depicts a female figure in dynamic dance pose. The dancer’s arched torso is captured in mid-motion, with her head slightly turned to the side. One arm is raised behind her head, holding a billowing veil of translucent fabric that softly drapes around her hips, cascades over her knee, and flows downward. The base of the plinth is decorated with a relief motif of semicircular waves.
