Description
Egypt, Late Dynastic Period, 26th Dynasty, ca. 664 to 525 BCE. A mold-formed faience ushabti standing in mummiform and holding a pick and hoe in crossed arms. The puffy visage presents with almond-shaped eyes, full cheeks, and a false beard, and the lappets of the tripartite wig drape over the shoulders. The pistachio green glaze provides a layer of attractive color to this ushabti, and a translated columnar inscription reads, "The Venerated Osiris, Amon-redjy-es, true of voice." Size: 0.8" W x 3.3" H (2 cm x 8.4 cm)
