Ancient Egyptian Faience Ushabti - Late Period 27th Dynasty - Nicely detailed


Not rated yet

Culture: Egyptian Period: 27th Dynasty or later style (525 - 332 B.C.)

Size: 12cm long by 3.1 cm wide x 2.2cm depth

Condition: Perfect - Intact with no repairs. A nice piece. Some evidence of its age but nicely etched hieroglyphs and details around the hands.

This superb example is a lovely blue in colour, wears a tripartite wig, false beard, and a detailed seed sack slung over his left shoulder. The ushabti carries a hoe and pick and has a back pillar. There is a T-Band of hieroglyphic inscription spanning the waist and continuing down the front of the leg case. This particular "T-band" configuration of the inscription tells us that the figure dates to the 27th Dynasty or later
