On her head is a throne, which is the hieroglyph that represents her name. Isis was the quintessential example of a loving and caring wife as well as a nurturing and protective mother. She is often described as "The Great One of Magic" and this amulet was supposed to invoke her protection and versatile powers for the benefit of its wearer. The back pillar of the piece is pierced so that the amulet could be suspended and worn, for example on a necklace. - See last picture as a parallel: https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/551003 Registered shipping.
