About The Storyteller with Two Children, One Soccer Ball

This seated female figure supports two children on her lap. One child is holding a soccer ball. Five oval-shaped turquoise looking stones adorn her necklace, while another poses as a turquoise ring on her left hand. An embroidered red, green and black belt bisects her black dress.
