AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

➜ A finely crafted statue of an Egyptian Ushabti, uniquely featuring the head of a ram. In Ancient Egyptian iconography, the ram was the sacred animal of the god Banebdjedet (the Lord of Mendes) and was also a powerful manifestation of the sun god Amun-Ra.

This statue is carfted from stone and finished with a vibrant turquoise-blue glaze, mimicking the "Egyptian Faience" used in antiquity. The figure is depicted in the traditional mummiform pose, with hands emerging from the wrappings to hold a symbolic Ankh at the chest.
