Her jewelry consists of a fairly plain spiral-braided necklace, from the center of which is suspended a miniature lunette, and a pair of earrings, each consisting of two pearls, one at the fastening, the other hanging from it on a simple gold band. Her curly hair is arranged quite simply and is drawn into a bun at the back.
