Description

Heavy Basalt (?) stone with Egyptian hieroglyphics on front and top edge. Have been

told it's a "modern" Egyptian offering table and the hieroglyphics make no sense.

Would stiil like to know if it's worth anything since it's very substantial and looks

hand done. I know i'ts at least 50 yrs old.
