Bed Leg
13.9.12.17e
A wooden leg from a bed, carved in the form of a bull’s foot. The surface of the object is not in a good state of preservation. One of five presented to the museum in 1912 by the British School of Archaeology in Egypt.
CONDITION NOTE (1998): Varying in dryness, surface cracking in a particular orientation (rot?) some of the legs are a little spongy to the touch with a rather light orange/brown colouration, surface dirt.
