AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

古代エジプトの岩晶クリスタルの甲虫(スカラブ)です。正面は細かく装飾され、切り込まれた頭部と甲区が特徴です。前胸背と鞗翅は一本の線で区切られ、前胸背の分割線から下方へ降りる二つの切り込みV字が肩甲部のこぶを形成します。甲虫の側面には直線状の刻線と短い陰影の線が装飾され、羽毛のように見える足の表現となっています。裏面は平坦で手がかりがありません。吊り下げ用に縦方向に貫通されていた痕跡があり、現在は塞がれています。 土汚れと若干の使用痕(年齢相応の欠けや擦り傷など)。正面下部に擦過痕。 本体には複数の安定した内部亀裂。裏面と甲虫の側面にも亀裂があり、下端は修理済みで、亀裂がまだ見える状態です。

このスカラブ(甲虫)は古代エジプト美術において非常に人気のある象徴で、太陽神ラーを表すと考えられていました。古代エジプト人は、糞玉を砂漠の上で転がすスカラブが、日中から夜へと太陽が天空を横断する旅を映し出していると信じていました。糞の中に卵を産むことで再生と復活の象徴となり、護符として用いられ、生者と死者の双方が身につけると信じられていました。

測定値(概算):長さ約2.2cm x 幅1.5cm x 高さ1.2cm

来歴:20世紀初頭のコレクション出自、英国。
