Ancient Egyptian Ptah figurine from Saqqara

Fragmentary wooden statuette of the god Ptah. Depicts the god as a mummiform figure, holding a staff before him with both hands. The staff is now missing except for a short strip at top and bottom. Stands on a rectangular plinth, on the base of which is wooden tang. Traces of a broad collar are visible around the neck. Detailed facial features, including two inlaid copper alloy eye rims, and one stone inlaid eye, black and white to mimic the pupil and iris and the white of the eye. Trace of copper alloy grooves cut for eyebrows. Grooves also cut along the jaw bone, possibly for an inlaid beard. Nose missing. Ears are carved at the side of the head.

Bottom modelled on the back of the figure. Traces of gesso or plaster over the body, and flecks of gilding visible the legs. The top of the head and head dress is missing, though the head dress may have been separate, keyed in by a wooden peg on the top of the head. Two cavities in either side of the figure appear to be intentional, though extended by damage. It is possible that this piece was part of a larger sculptural group, and that these were the means of keying them together. They might also have carried arms for the figure. There is also a slim rectangular strip of damage in the centre front of the figure an extension of a point where the now missing staff keyed in. Possible mould on the top of the head.
