Beschreibung : Egypt, Late Dynastic to Ptolemaic Period, ca. 664 to 30 BCE. A beautiful amulet carved from quartz (also rock crystal) depicting the head of Bes, the dwarf deity known as a protector of women and children of a household. The expressive head displays characteristic features such as wide-set eyes beneath furrowed brows, a broad nose, full lips flanked with fleshy cheeks, perky ears, and a shaggy beard that Egyptologists posit resembles a lion's mane. Two caps shaped from 92% to 98% gold (equivalent to 22K+) enclose the head below the chin and above his feathered cap with a top suspension loop able to hold this amulet on a modern necklace strand. Size: 0.4 W x 0.75 H (1 cm x 1.9 cm), quality of gold: 92% for top cap and 98% for bottom cap (both equivalent to 22K+), total weight: 2.2 grams.
