Description from the seller
➜ An elegant Ancient Egyptian–style ritual spoon featuring the falcon-headed god Horus, one of the most powerful and enduring deities of ancient Egypt. Horus, symbol of kingship, protection, and divine order, is shown standing in formal posture, surmounted by his characteristic falcon head.
The spoon is crafted from stone with traces of blue faience-style glazing, particularly visible along the bowl and shaft, evoking the appearance of ceremonial objects used in ritual, cosmetic, or temple contexts. The elongated handle is carefully shaped, with incised details and proportional balance that reflect traditional Egyptian design principles.
Surface wear, pigment fading, and minor irregularities are consistent with its decorative, aged aesthetic and enhance its historical character. This spoon inspired by museum held examples of ritual spoons from Ancient Egypt.
A striking and uncommon display object, ideal for collectors of Egyptian mythology, ritual implements, or symbolic artefacts.
