Only the front of the Nike statuette is worked. The back is open and hollow with separately made wings attached at the shoulders. Nike has just landed with her right foot on the ground and her left still in the air. She stretches her right arm in front of her while the left is stretched to her side and slightly back. There are holes punched in each hand. She wears a short chiton underneath a cuirass with a mantle over both. Atop the mantle, she wears straps over both shoulders, crossing at her chest. Her face is very round and the hair is arranged in two snail curls at the peak with the rest of the hair flowing toward the back of the head.
