Description
These six exquisitely carved alabaster knop amulets serve as a testament to the religious fervor and artistic sophistication of Coptic Egypt between the 4th and 6th centuries AD. Each amulet, varying slightly in size from approximately 2.5x2 cm (0.98"x0.78"), was likely intended to offer protection or blessings to its wearer. Their milky, translucent material and smooth finish reflect the luminous quality highly prized in Coptic artistry.
