Royal Temple Amphora – Hand-Carved Basalt Vessel with Relief Scenes (60cm)
A Vessel Fit for Kings This commanding 60cm vessel is a masterclass in stone carving. Sculpted from a single block of dense Basalt (weighing 18 kg), it features the classic "Amphora" silhouette with sturdy stone handles. The Artistry: The body is encircled with intricate bas-relief carvings depicting a pharaonic procession of offering bearers and deities, reminiscent of scenes found on temple walls in Luxor. The Finish: Treated with a matte "Museum Antique" finish, giving the grey-black stone a weathered, timeless appearance that exudes authenticity. Placement: substantial enough to stand alone on a pedestal or grace a grand tabletop. An architectural statement piece that brings the grandeur of Ancient Egypt into modern interiors.
The gallery team can confirm the current condition, finish, and surface details before you visit or request shipping. Small variations are expected on hand-finished semi-antique replicas.
Local viewing in Luxor is preferred when possible. Shipping or hand-carry options can be discussed after the gallery confirms size, weight, destination, and packing needs.
