Unlike the typical amulet form, this small statuette was presented as a votive offering.

The light blue faience figure depicts the goddess Isis nursing her son, Horus.

She is seated on her throne resting her feet on an integral plinth, wearing a tripartite wig fronted by a uraeus, crowned by the throne hieroglyph.

Her son Horus is depicted nude while seated on her lap.
