Locust statuette

Figure of a locust. The head is oval, the eyes are visible, and the legs are folded against the body. Two incised, curved lines run towards the tail. Under the figure, there is a thin groove measuring 5 cm, which runs almost all the way through it, except for the head. The object is made in the lost-wax technique for solid casts.
