Three grey-colored ceramic figurines with round bodies, long necks and stubby arms, faces created by two arcing lines for eyes, and one for a mouth. The central figure, also the tallest, reaches one arm to the shoulder of the second-tallest, on our right, and the other down to the head of the shortest, on our left. Horizontal ridges texture the length of all three figure's bodies.
