AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful and imposing vintage bust of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun, modeled after his world-famous death mask.
This high-quality sculpture is made from solid cast brass (yellow copper) and dates from the flourishing period of Hollywood Regency and Egyptian Revival style in the 1970s/1980s.
What makes this specimen unique is its exceptionally high weight of no less than 4.2 kilograms.
Where many comparable replicas are hollow or made of plastic, this is a very solid, heavy, and well-cast object.
The brass has developed over the years a beautiful, authentic patina that adds extra depth to the facial features and the iconic details of the nemes headdress.
If desired, the statue can also be polished to a high gloss.
A stunning, eclectic decorative piece that fits excellently in a modern, vintage, or Hollywood Regency-inspired interior.
Also suitable as an exclusive, heavy bookend or paperweight.
