Description
This ancient Egyptian scarab seal amulet, dating back to the illustrious 18th Dynasty, represents a pinnacle of religious symbolism and personal adornment. Meticulously carved from steatite and finished with a now-weathered glaze, the amulet measures 1.5 by 1 by 0.5 cm (0.59 by 0.39 by 0.20 inches). Scarabs were revered in ancient Egypt as symbols of rebirth and regeneration, and this particular piece would have served both as a protective talisman and a seal. Its fine detail and preservation make it a remarkable specimen of ancient Egyptian artistry, offering a unique opportunity for collectors to own a fragment of the mysticism that surrounded the pharaohs.
