This is the rating and price for An Egyptian Faience Ushabti

Description : An Egyptian faience ushabti, Late Period, 27th Dynasty, c. 525 - 402 BC, mummiform, wearing tripartite wig and false bead, arms are folded across chest with the hands holding hoes and a bag over the left shoulder. There is a nicely preserved T-Style inscription down front and a plinth on back . Intact, chip to backside of base, original green glaze now has faded to light brown. H: 6 1/2 in, (16.5 cm). From the 27th dynasty on, the faces of ushabtis adopted a faint smile, similar to that found on Greek Kori, which can be seen on this piece. An old collection label on the underside of the foot reads, 'HOV 26th Dynasty (60 BC)', but this description does not fit the time period, and this ushabti has features more consistent with 27th Dynasty ushabtis, when Egypt became a province of the Achaemenid Empire. Ex West Sussex, England Private Collection, acquired over half a century through auctions, dealers and antiques fairs.
