Seated Anubis - Egyptian Handcrafted Sculpture - Limited Edition

Description :

This sculpture is a reinterpretation of the god Anubis, inspired by the majestic figure found in Tutankhamun's tomb. Originally carried on a ceremonial palanquin, it has been redesigned here on a door-shaped base, a direct allusion to the young pharaoh's sarcophagus, as a symbolic invitation to cross the threshold between the world of the living and that of the dead.

Unlike the many replicas available in France today, this work is truly unique. Fawzia personally selected it in Luxor, Egypt, from the artist Salah Sayed. Hand-carved from soapstone—a rock extracted from the Egyptian Eastern Desert—it is a testament to ancestral craftsmanship passed down through the generations.

Every detail has been crafted using traditional methods. Once sculpted, the piece is covered with a quartz and copper glaze, inspired by ancient Egyptian faience techniques, then fired to strengthen its structure and reveal its deep, vibrant blue hue.

To complete this work, a quartz and copper glaze is applied, using a method inspired by traditional Egyptian earthenware. After firing, the piece takes on a deep blue hue with iridescent reflections, evoking the night sky and the divine.

Symbolism: Anubis, the jackal-headed god, is the guardian of tombs, the guide of souls, and the master of the passage to the afterlife. He presides over the judgment of the deceased and accompanies the initiate in their spiritual transformation.

Through this sculpture, a whole world of mystery, tradition and symbolism takes shape, embodying the encounter between ancestral art and contemporary emotion.

A rare and powerful piece, perfect for enriching a collection of Egyptological objects or bringing a touch of mystery to your interior.
