Information

Pendant from a briad collar necklace in the form of a leaf or fruit. Horizontal marks at both ends. Green glazed faience with a ;oop at the top and bottom for suspension to string. From the collection of Flaxman Spurrell purchased in 1956 (not assigned an accession number until in 1978). Spurrell was given many small finds from Flinders Petrie's 1891-2 excavations at Tell el-Amarna. However, it could also be possible the object is from Hughes and Petrie's 1888 and 1889 excavations at Gurob.
