The piece is known as "Scarab: Falcon with Red Crown and Cobra (?)" and it exudes an aura of mystery and symbolism. Crafted from glazed steatite, this intricately carved scarab beetle reveals a striking depiction of a falcon adorned with the iconic red crown, accompanied by what appears to be a cobra. The artistry displayed in this sculpture is awe-inspiring. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect, from the delicate feathers on the falcon's wings to the scales on the serpent's body. The glaze adds depth and richness to its beige hue, making it even more visually captivating. As we delve into its symbolic significance, we are transported back in time to an era where animals held great importance in Egyptian culture. The falcon symbolized power and protection while the cobra represented royalty and divine authority. Together, they embody concepts such as rebirth and resurrection.
