Egyptian Revival / Grand Tour Moulded Stone Ushabti (Shabti) Figurine

£35.00

Decorative Egyptian Revival mummiform ushabti (shabti) tomb figurine measuring approximately 13–14 cm in height (shown beside a standard Tunnock's Teacake for scale).

Crafted in pale cream/grey carved stone or moulded marl/plaster with a weathered, antiqued surface finish, depicting a pharaonic figure wearing a striated tripartite wig, crossed arms, a vertical royal cartouche on the chest, and horizontal bands of pseudo-hieroglyphic text down the lower body.

Features a flat, unglazed cream-coloured base. Note that the loose, stylized hieroglyphs, prominent chest cartouche, and uniform carved/moulded base are characteristic of 19th- to mid-20th-century Egyptian Grand Tour or tourist souvenir pieces rather than an excavated ancient antiquity.

Presents in good displayable condition with intentional antiqued distressing and light edge wear.
