Ancient Egyptian Alabaster Spindle Whorl

Item Details

Description

This spindle whorl, meticulously fashioned from alabaster, is a representation of the daily life and artistry in ancient Egypt. A spindle whorl is a tool used in the spinning of thread or yarn and is essential in textile production. The dimensions of this object are 4x2x2 cm / 1.57" x 0.79"x0.79", a size that speaks to its functional purpose in the hands of an Egyptian craftsperson. The smooth, pale material of alabaster was valued in Egypt not only for its beauty but also for its durability. By its form and substance, this spindle whorl conveys the ingenuity and practical aesthetics of a culture that valued both utility and elegance in objects of everyday use. This piece stands as a cultural artifact, echoing the timeless skills and artful contributions of the ancient Egyptian people to the crafts and practices that shaped their world.
