This set of four steatite rings, each with an inner diameter of 2 cm, dates back to the Post-Pharaonic Epoch. The rings are adorned with intricately carved hieroglyphics, each ring featuring a different depiction, possibly representing various deities or symbols of power and protection. The craftsmanship indicates they may have been used as personal seals or amulets, signifying the wearer's connection to the divine. The steatite material was chosen for its durability, ensuring the longevity of the carvings and the rings' continued use over centuries. This collection would have been a prized possession, symbolizing status and religious affiliation in ancient Egyptian society.

Thousand Planet Auction House - Efforts in Information Generation:

At Thousand Planet Auction House, we understand the importance of providing our clients with as much information as possible about each lot we present. Our commitment to this goal is unwavering, especially given the unique challenges we face.

Due to the diverse origins of our lots, which often come from large estate auctions where items are mixed and provenance can be complex, we do not receive detailed historical provenance for every item. In response to this challenge, our dedicated team works tirelessly to research each artifact. We employ a rigorous process of visual analysis and comparison, drawing upon a vast array of resources including academic research from universities, findings from various institutes, and records from museums globally.

This meticulous approach allows us to create informed introductions for each lot. We aim to provide our bidders with a clear understanding of each item's characteristics and possible historical context. It's important for our clients to know that every piece of information in our listings is the result of extensive research and careful consideration by our knowledgeable staff.

We take pride in our efforts to uncover and present as much information as we can. However, we also recognize the limitations of our research and encourage bidders to conduct their own investigations. This collaborative approach between our auction house and potential buyers ensures a more comprehensive understanding of each lot and its potential value.
