Visualizza traduzioneAntico Egitto Steatite Scarabeo con motivi geometrici (Senza Prezzo di Riserva)
N. 91689307
An Ancient Egyptian steatite scarab decorated with a geometric pattern on the reverse. Careful attention has been given to depict the clypeus and head, although it is now worn due to age. Stylised legs are represented with incisions along the sides of the scarab. The arched back has been left free of markings. The reverse features a floral geometric pattern consisting of scroll motifs and curvilinear carvings forming a cross around a central circle. The scarab has been perforated longitudinally for suspension, however it is now blocked. Earthly encrustations to the surface. Signs of wear as consistent with its age, such as minor chips to the edges, scratches, and discolouration. The is a larger chip to one end of the perforation on the reverse.
Scarabs of this type, with generalised hieroglyphs and geometric patterns, were popular during the Middle Kingdom. They gain popularity especially during late Dynasty 12 to Dynasty 13, circa 1850–1640 BC. However influence was taken from such designs during the New Kingdom, when geometric patterns also became popular. Scarabs such as these would have been worn for their apotropaic value.
Measurements: (circa) L 1.5cm x W 1cm x H 0.5cm
Provenance: Ex Mustaki Collection, early 20th century, UK.
