Descripción : Ancient Egypt, New Kingdom, 18th to 20th Dynasty, ca. 1550 to 1070 BCE. A slender flask of inverted piriform presentation that is hand-carved from attractive banded alabaster. The top and bottom halves likely originated as separate vessels and were attached in modern times, however the fit around the diameter as well as the overall size are quite impressive. The flask exhibits a narrow cone base that gradually widens to form the broad body and rounded shoulder, and a pair of raised handles protrude from the sides. Size: 2.5 W x 8 H (6.4 cm x 20.3 cm), 8.25 H (21 cm) on included custom stand. Alabaster was quarried along the length of the Nile, from Giza to just south of Luxor, and the Egyptians made carved alabaster pieces famous throughout the ancient world. The piece was drilled into, and then special tools were used to expand the drilled-upon areas.
