Description
I bought this from an Egyptian family that had a store they closed in Egypt. It came with 70 other older pieces of revival era Egyptian handmade pieces.This King Tut statue is carved out of a solid slab of Egyptian limestone that was originally 3' 5" tall X 1' 2" wide X 1' 2" depth. This is very heavy handcut stone (not cast) with old world style polychrome paints.Most likely made not long after the discovery of King Tut's tomb in 1922.
