Descripción : Egypt, Late Dynastic Period, ca. 7th Century BCE. A pair of faience fired kohl cups of the Late Dynastic Period. The ancient Egyptians believed that cosmetics gave them supernatural power, and so wore makeup regardless of gender or status. The kohl that was stored in containers like these was used as black eyeliner, and was applied with a wooden stick to create that famous almond-shaped Egyptian eye. These fine examples show remains of blue glaze, and one of the cups has traces of black hieroglyphs. Both cups measure approximately 2H. Provenance: Ex-prominent NYC, NY gallery.
