Ancient Egyptian Terracotta beaded necklace - 40 cm (No reserve price)

Re-strung terracotta bead necklace – Ancient Egypt Elegant necklace made up of numerous terracotta beads, from ancient Egyptian tradition, currently strung into a long strand of approximately 40 cm in length. The beads, small in size — about 4 to 10 mm — feature a distinctive discoidal and cylindrical shape, with slight irregularities inherent to their manual fabrication. They preserve an attractive range of natural tones, from ochres and sands to browns and darker earthy hues, creating a particularly harmonious ensemble. The matte surface, color variations, and small signs of wear give the piece a marked archaeological presence. The considerable length of the necklace allows one to appreciate the rhythmic succession of the beads and lends it a striking decorative effect, whether displayed in a vitrine or shown on a stand. Cultural provenance: Ancient Egypt Material: Terracotta Total length: approx. 100 cm Bead diameter: approx. 4 mm Condition: as expected for its age, with wear, deposits, and tonal variations typical of the material. An intimate and evocative piece, representative of the tradition of personal ornamentation in ancient Egypt, especially appealing for a collection of Mediterranean and Oriental archaeology.
