seated on a rocky ledge with his left leg across and the right leg raised, clutching a long beaded necklace in the left hand, the deity cloaked in long flowing robes falling into voluminous folds and opening at the front revealing the large belly, the cheerful face with a gentle smile, flanked by a pair of long pendulous ears, the ivory patinated to an attractive creamy tone suffused with light caramel patches
