古埃及 Terracotta 珠串项链 - 40 cm (沒有保留價)

terracotta beads necklace re-stringed – Ancient Egypt

Elegant necklace composed of numerous terracotta beads, from ancient Egyptian tradition, currently strung to form a long strand of approximately 40 cm in length.

The beads, small in size — approximately 4 to 10 mm —, present a characteristic discoidal and cylindrical shape, with slight irregularities inherent to their manual manufacture. They preserve an attractive range of natural tones, from ochres and sands to browns and darker earthy hues, creating a particularly harmonious ensemble.

The matte surface, the color variations and the small signs of wear contribute to the set a pronounced archaeological presence. The considerable length of the necklace allows the rhythmic succession of the beads to be appreciated and gives it an important decorative effect, whether displayed in a vitrine or presented on a support.
