The sculpture depicts a Native American figure with a headdress of large, colorful feathers in mostly yellow and green hues. The figure holds an axe in its raised right hand and a pouch or bag in its left hand. It wears a brown garment with fringes and decorative elements like leaf-like designs in green, blue, and ochre. The sculpture's color is primarily earthy brown with bursts of color in the headdress and garment accents. The figure stands confidently on a pedestal, with one foot forward. The sculpture showcases intricate details in attire and posture, with slightly exaggerated features typical of carved wooden statues.
