Egyptian Ushabti W/Faience Color! 600 B.C.

This is an interesting ancient Egyptian Ushabti. This piece is in worn condition, but it still has a lovely green/blue original glaze remaining. The facial features on this piece are in worn but identifiable condition. Much more than the picture indicates. The face, eyes, nose, ears, false beard, and hands crossed mummiform over the chest are all clear to this piece and are visible. The piece is a very significant 2.75" tall. This ushabti features an elegant original green glaze in places, with the glaze worn off in others. Intact and unbroken, this is a very rare original specimen. A nice little display and a wonderful study piece with good size. It has an outstanding Egyptian green faience coloring remaining. Perfect for anyone interested in the study of Egyptian ushabtis and the creation/glazing process. In solid condition, and its size is one that will display very well. Egypt, Late Period, 664 - 50 B.C.
