The composition shows an elegant girl frozen in motion with a hoop in her hands. The figure is made of gilded bronze, skillfully combined with smooth ivory, which is used to depict bare arms, legs and chest.

Graceful lines and elegant forms emphasize the aesthetic value of this sculpture. The pedestal of the figurine bears the author`s signature, which confirms its authenticity.
