Description from the seller
Nice quality Necklace tubular and globular beads with 3 fly amulets.
- perfect -
Ancient Egypt, Late Period, 664 - 332 BC
Material: Carnelian and faience.
Size: 42 cm large.
Provenance:
- Private collecton, USA. Acquired in Secret Eyes Gallery, New York, 1970's-1980's
Condition: Fine condition, original, intact. Wearable.
The fly whisks that Egyptian artists depicted in the hands of Pharaohs and high officials are potent reminders of how irksome the hosts of flies were in ancient Egypt. The ancient Egyptians, however, seemed to have held flies in high esteem, presumably because of this insect’s powers of fast reaction and indomitable, insistent presence.
Notes:
- The piece includes authenticity certificate.
- The seller guarantees that he acquired this piece according to all national and international laws related to the ownership of cultural property. Provenance statement seen by Catawiki.
