Faience figurine of Nephthys (?)

myminifactory

This is a vibrant figurine crafted from faience, depicting an Egyptian deity - likely Nephthys, as she sports her distinctive headdress: a sturdy house topped with a wicker basket, though a shard has broken off from its base. As the goddess of mourning rituals, river currents, the dark of night, maternal services, childbirth's mysteries, mothers' gentle care, the spirits of the dead, household protection, warm hearths, coffins, burial grounds, and the airy realm above.
