Description
An ancient Egyptian funeral boat was a type of vessel used in the funerary rituals of ancient Egypt. These boats were believed to carry the deceased pharaohs and other members of the royal family on their journey to the afterlife. They were also used in the transportation of funerary offerings, which were meant to sustain the deceased in the afterlife.
Egyptian funeral boats were often elaborately decorated and featured intricate carvings and paintings. The boats were typically made from wood, with the larger boats being constructed from several planks joined together. Some boats were also covered with gold leaf or precious stones to enhance their ceremonial importance.
The construction of these boats was a significant undertaking, requiring the efforts of many skilled craftsmen. In addition to their practical use, funeral boats were also considered to be highly symbolic, representing the journey of the deceased from this world to the afterlife.
This beautifully crafted bowl features a hand-painted floral and bird motif on a soft blue porcelain base. Intricately detailed bronze-finish handles and an ornate pedestal base add a sense of timeless luxury. Ideal as a centerpiece for classic interiors or an elegant accent for consoles and tables.
Dimensions (H x W x D): approx. 24 x 42 x 32 cm (9.4" x 16.5" x 12.6")
Material: Porcelain body with antique-finish metal handles and stand

It was beautifully made & enjoyed by the receiver.

Arrived when expected and the item is beautiful. Looks quality and great detail. It is a gift for someone and I don't think they'll be disappointed with it. Also, I had some concerns about delivery time as I was on a tight schedule but had plenty of communication with the seller and it was delivered by Royal Mail which was reassuring.

This is a gift for my wife who loves owls. This piece of Steampunk art takes the wise bird whom Athena in Greek mythology favours to an entirely new level. I love steampunk art and my wife is quite impressed with this figurine which is well made and quite unique.
