Description
There is a human figure carved in a kneeling position with one leg underneath their body. They are wearing a parka and boots. The hem of their parka has a vertical line design and the boots have details done in a lighter mat section where the vamps and top of the boots would be. They are holding something in their arms, possibly a creature with two circles for eyes, two smaller ones for the nose, and spots across its face. The stone itself is a shiny black colour with light veins running vertically. Details like the whites of the person's eyes, and the decoration to their garments are in a medium grey that is more mat.
