- Lot Description
Ancient Egypt, New Kingdom, 18th to 20th Dynasty, ca. 1550 to 1077 BCE. A mold-formed faience scarab of petite size mounted on a modern 14K gold ring setting. The topside of the scarab features a folded wing carapace, sinuous legs, and a slender head, and shown on the underside are several hieroglyphic symbols including a heart-and-windpipe, a sun disk, and a right-facing crocodile. A setting wire attached above the gold ring shank is fed through the scarab's body to enable the wearability of this intriguing accessory. Size (ring): 0.7" W x 1.05" H (1.8 cm x 2.7 cm); (scarab): 0.5" L x 0.25" W (1.3 cm x 0.6 cm); quality of gold: 14K; total weight: 3.3 grams; US ring size 5.25
Provenance: private Houston, Texas, USA collection; ex-private Houston, Texas, USA, collection, acquired before 2000
All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
