Egypt, Late Dynastic Period, 26th to 31st Dynasty, ca. 664 to 332 BCE. A fine pair of matching, mold-formed faience ibis amulets with back-turned heads and wings folded atop their plump bodies.

Provenance: private East Coast, USA collection; ex-Dr. Sid Port collection, California, USA, acquired in 1980
