Information

Shabti mould-made from green glazed faience. Mummiform shaped, wearing a tripartite wig and long beard. The arms are crossed above the waist and the hands hold a pair of hoes, painted on in black (right side one is very worn away). A square basket with shoulder straps is carried on the back. A painted column of hieroglyphs on the front is now indiscernible. Record card suggests this was formerly in the Page collection.
