➜ This finely hand-crafted stone shabti represents Hapi, the baboon-headed deity and one of the Four Sons of Horus, guardian of the lungs in ancient Egyptian belief. The figure stands in the classic mummiform posture, arms crossed over the chest, wearing a striated headdress and a vertical band of hieroglyphic motifs symbolizing eternal protection. Its serene expression and turquoise-green tone echo the sacred colours of rebirth and renewal, cherished in Egyptian funerary art. Crafted fromstone with subtle polish and fine detailing, this piece reflects both artistic skill and spiritual meaning—an homage to the craftsmanship and devotion of ancient Egypt. ➜ Why You’ll Love It: • Depicts Hapi, the revered baboon-headed Son of Horus, protector of the lungs during mummification. His calm expression and sacred form embody strength, wisdom, and the eternal duty of guardianship in the afterlife. • Intricately engraved hieroglyphic band runs along the front of the figure, reflecting ancient funerary inscriptions meant to invoke blessings, preservation, and safe passage into the next world. • Classic mummiform stance with crossed arms, carefully carved hands, and a braided headdress — all traditional symbols of devotion and eternal rest. The sculptor captured both the rigidity of the burial form and the grace of divine representation. • Evokes the timeless symbolism of rebirth and divine protection, connecting the viewer with the spiritual world of ancient Egypt where color, form, and inscription carried sacred meaning. • A museum-style centerpiece that bridges history and art — ideal for collectors, historians, and admirers of Egyptian antiquity who appreciate authentic craftsmanship and cultural storytelling in stone. ➜ Don’t Miss Out: a powerful and elegant representation of Egypt’s ancient guardianship statue. ➜ Height: 21.5 cm ➜ Width: 6 cm ➜ Weight: 787 gram ➜ Object: Egyptian Statue ➜ Material: Stone ➜ Origin: Egypt
