Das ist der Preis für die folgende Bewertung: Egyptian Lotus Flower Amulet

Beschreibung : Ptolemaic Period, 332-30 BC. A carved lapis lazuli bifacial amuletic pendant of a lotus flower, pierced for suspension. 1.29 grams, 17mm (3/4). Property of a Essex gentleman, acquired from a collection formed in the 1920s. The lotus was worn as a protective talisman by the living and the deceased. To the ancient Egyptians the lotus symbolised creation and rebirth, and was a symbol of Upper Egypt. The lotus flower later became the symbol of the goddess Isis, representing chastity in young girls, and fertility in married women. Common images of this iconic symbol of Egypt depict the lotus being held toward the noses of Pharaohs, as its scent was considered restorative and protective. Wearing the lotus was believed to bring good luck. Images in The Book of the Dead show the deceased smelling lotus blossoms to restore the senses.
