Three Egyptian glazed composition shabtis
New Kingdom-Third Intermediate Period, 20th-22nd Dynasty, circa 1186-735 B.C.
All depicted mummiform, comprising a green glazed composition shabti for a queen, wearing a short wig with a long thick tress of hair falling down the right shoulder; a blue glazed composition shabti, typically mummiform, holding a pick and a hoe, a seed bag behind, the name beginning 'Iy-Set-er'; and another blue mummiform shabti, holding a pick and a hoe, a large seed bag behind, the text now illegible, 11cm-18cm (3)

Footnotes

Provenance:
Gottfried and Helga Hertel collection, Cologne, acquired in the 1970s-1980s.

The first shabti iconographically resembles the shabti of Queen Isis, wife of Ramesses III of the 20th Dynasty, suggesting it was for the same owner.
