Descrizione : Ancient Egypt, Third Intermediate to Late Dynastic Period, 21st to 31st Dynasty, ca. 1069 to 332 BCE. A remarkable faience ring that features a mold made aegis and gilt with 71.06% (equivalent to 17K+) gold. The front of the aegis features a bust of a deity - the surface is soft and the finer details are indiscernible to determine the god or goddess, but a conical headdress sits atop the head, and lappets from the regal headdress rest upon the shoulders, and beneath is a wesekh broad collar intended to emulate the front of a shield. The aegis is attached to one area of a wide ring band and the surface of the faience is embellished with a blue-green glaze, as well as gold! Areas of the precious gilt remain in patches along the shank, adding a brilliant glimmer to the ancient ring. Imagine how exquisite the ensemble would be when entirely coated in gold!
