This is the rating and price for Egyptian Glazed Faience Grape Bunch Architectural Piece

Description : Ancient Egypt, late Second Intermediate Period to New Kingdom, 17th to 20th Dynasty, ca. 1580 to 1077 BCE. An interesting, mold-formed faience architectural element in the form of a cluster of grapes. The piece features 25 hemispherical grapes that protrude from the obverse of the conical body, and the planar verso has a petite cut-out notch for the attachment or insertion of a slender tenon. An architectural grape bunch like this example was perhaps an adornment for a garden kiosk or another outdoor structure as the ancient Egyptians were fond of natural imagery. Remains of soft blue glaze is visible and enhances the overall attractiveness of this piece.
