This sculpture depicts two elongated figures carved from what appears to be ivory or bone, with a weathered, cream-colored patina marked by brown spotting. The figures are joined together, sharing a single base, and mirror each other in their positioning. Each has an elongated face with pronounced features, including large almond-shaped eyes and full lips. Their bodies are simplified and geometric, with long necks that curve forward. One figure appears to have a dark hair or headdress element on the side. Between the figures is a decorative pattern of diamond shapes. At the base, there are several parallel linear marks carved into the material. The overall composition is symmetrical and frontal, characteristic of ancient Sumerian sculptural style. The weathering and staining on the surface suggests significant age, adding to its archaeological character.
