XXVIth Dynasty Circa 664 to 525 BC

A votive servant for the afterlife in a mummiform posture with hands arms on chest and each hand holding an implement for the afterlife. Impressed with lines of hieroglyphic text “Illuminate the Osiris Khonsuirdis, born of . . .Amun”

Khonsuirdis (also rendered Khonsu‑irdis or Khonsu‑er‑dis) is documented as a high‑status individual connected with Thebes in the Saite period, attested as “mayor of Edfu” and later “mayor of Thebes,” which places her in a 26th‑dynasty context. Pale green/light green faience ushabtis are characteristic of Late Period production, especially from the 22nd dynasty onward, and remain common in the 26th dynasty, where the blue‑green glazes often shift to green over time


Size 4-3/4 inches (12cm) H. + custom mount.  Intact with aged surface
