durom.1960.1941 | durom.1960.1941-ff.jpg | data/raw/images/oriental/1960 | Carved and incised tan hardstone with brown bands. The figure is likely a bi xie seated in a twisted manner, with the head turned to face proper right and both hind legs raised, tiled to face proper left; with the right hind leg connected to the side of the bi xie's head. The bi xie has detailed carved facial features, including protruding eyes with a wide brow, and a lump carved in relief between the two eyebrows. The two ears are carved and prominent, the proper right ear connected to the right hind leg. Along the back are rows of incised lines extending down the back of the bi xie's neck to denote the mane, which then splits into three flares. The front paws have carved details that define the claws individually. Along the main body of the figure is a line of ridges carved in high relief. The claws on both hind legs are carved in low relief. The tail of the bi xie is flared and features open work, extending from the main body of the figure. The underside of the figure bears a penis carved in low relief, ridges denoting the twisted main body, and some incisions to denote fur. | figures | null | 85jade

eg3572 | eg3572.1-uu.jpg | data/raw/images/egyptian/eg | large copper alloy cat, hollow, to hold a mummified cat. On the head is a scarab beetle in blue glass/lapis lazuli. The eyes are inlaid with clear glass and blue glass/lapis lazuli. Around the neck is a necklace of 17 cowroids in raised relief and a pendant in the form of a cat headed aegis. The ears are striated on the inside. The two front legs are extremely fragile and loose, and end in a plug to fit into the wooden base, which is separate. The hollow body has two protruding feet and a tail which wraps round. The base area is very damaged, and there is a split up the back from the tail, and an area of bronze disease. There seems to be some plaster here from an old repair? The base is a slab of sycamore wood, curved at one end and straight edges at the other. It is hollowed at the curved end to hold the cat, with an additional hollow to hold the plug at the base of the feet. The base is fragile and chipped. | Animal Figurine | copper alloy cat with wooden base | 59copper

The shabti wears a tripartite wig with a black painted sheshed band tied around the brow, that is now barely visible. The arms are crossed, right over left, both holding a hoe and there is a black painted rectangular seed bag in the centre of the back, which is now much faded. There are some remains of black paint over the hoes and facial features, suggesting these were previously also highlighted. The shabti had one column of black painted inscription down the front, now much faded but did not have a back pillar or a base. It had previously been broken below the arms, but has been mended.
