Description from the seller
➜ This is a hand crafted limestone bas-relief depicting a finely carved profile of an Ancient Egyptian goddess, most likely Isis or Hathor, identifiable by the sun disk and uraeus upon the head and the traditional tripartite wig.
The carving follows the classic artistic canon of New Kingdom temple and tomb reliefs. The figure is rendered with elegant linear hair patterns, a defined eye, and a calm, dignified expression associated with protective and benevolent deities.
Such relief fragments were originally created to decorate temple walls or tomb chambers, honouring deities and offering protection to the deceased. This replica captures the elegance, symmetry, and sacred symbolism of ancient Egyptian art.
➜ Why You’ll Love It:
• Beautiful and highly detailed carving with crisp linework.
• Represents one of Ancient Egypt’s most iconic goddesses in classic artistic style.
• Made from natural limestone, giving it an authentic archaeological feel.
• Perfect for display in a home, office, or collection of ancient world replicas.
• A striking piece that reflects the spiritual and artistic sophistication of Egyptian civilisation.
➜ Don’t Miss Out:
Fragments like this—especially in limestone with sharp, clean detailing—attract strong interest from collectors. If you're looking for a display piece that feels truly ancient and visually impressive, this is an excellent opportunity.
