GROUP OF EGYPTIAN FAIENCE AMULETS

New Kingdom - Late Period, Ca. 1550 - 332 BC An Egyptian group of 4 mould-formed faience amulets covered in lustrous layers of glaze. The amulets are made in different colours and have different details because of the different production periods. First is a baboon, second is Thoth, third is a deity, and the fourth is a Ram, which most likely represents the god Amun.
