Third Intermediate Period, 21st Dynasty, Ca. 1075 - 945 BC.An amazing hand-built faience ushabti of Nesytanebetisheru, standing in a dignified pose, enrobed in layers of incredibly lustrous, brilliant blue glaze.

The protruding visage exhibits gently modelled features like almond-shaped eyes outlined heavily with black pigment, a flush nose, a slender mouth with indented corners, and tall ears, all framed within the striated lappets of his tripartite wig.Size: 150mm x 60mm; Weight: 210gProvenance: Prince collection, 1990s-2014; Ex. Christie's New York, Antiquities, 4 June 1999, lot 242, Thalassic collection. This item has been cleared against the Art Loss Register database and comes with a confirmation letter.
