This gourd container has an unusual Mwana Hiti styled stopper above two abstracted legs. Bands of zig-zag decorations can be found at the top of the stopper's shaft and below the navel of the figure, with strands of early glass beads adorning the body of the gourd. A single strand of beads appears around the neck of the Mwana Hiti, and throughout, the surface of the figure is worn and smooth as a result of handling.
