This is the rating and price for Egyptian Bead And Amulet Necklace, 1300



Description : New Kingdom to 30th Dynasty, 1300-350 BC. A restrung necklace of cylindrical, disc- and spherical shaped beads with modern clasp and six interstitial amulets comprising: two scarabs, each with hieroglyphic text to the underside, one with cartouche of Pharaoh Tuthmosis, a blue wedjat eye bead with applied black pigment trails to the pupil and brow, a head of the god Bes with feather headdress, a large djed pillar with pierced dorsal bar, an amulet of the god Shu, kneeling with both arms raised. Walter Steinberg has been a well-known figure at fairs, sales and events for many years. Born in 1922 in Philadelphia, Walter has had a life-long passion for collecting. A long-time resident in London, he has now retired to New York and decided that the time has come to pass on the antiquities and coins he has collected over his lifetime. Walter acquired coins and artefacts that interested him, so his collection, although containing many lovely examples, also contains many affordable specimens. Much of the material has been unavailable to the market for 30 to 50 years. Walter hopes that the items he collected will now find new homes with the next generation of collectors. 17 grams, 61cm (24). Ex Walter Steinberg collection, acquired London art market, 1960s-1970s.
