Byzantine Egyptian Carnelian Coptic Fish Amulet (4th-7th Century AD)

Item Details

Description

This exquisite ancient relic, a Coptic Fish Form Amulet crafted from carnelian, hails from the Byzantine era in Egypt, dating back to the 4th to 7th centuries AD. Measuring a mere 19x7x6mm, this small yet remarkable amulet features intricate detailing in the form of a fish.

What adds to the allure of this amulet is its provenance. It was previously owned by the proprietor of an art gallery, attesting to its value and appeal in the art world. This amulet not only holds historical significance as a relic from Byzantine Egypt but also possesses artistic and cultural value. Its small size makes it a charming addition to any collection, and its rich history makes it a captivating conversation piece.
