{"product_id":"a-brass-falcon-headed-canopic-jar-gs-354-copy","title":"An Egyptian Style Bronze Vase with Cover (GS. 199)","description":"\u003cp\u003eResembling a canopic jar, the ovoid form impressed with hieroglyphic bands and relief scarab below, the cover modelled as a zoomorphic falcon-head, likely emulating both the gods Qebehsenuef and Ra. One of the four sons of Horus, Qehbehsenuef serves as god of the West and the protector of the intestines, and as such is most notably depicted on canopic jars with a falcon head similar to his father. However, the inclusion of the sun disc atop the falcon’s brow is more associated as iconography of the falcon-headed sun god Ra.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight: 25cm   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProvenance: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the private collection of Nicola Marletta, Rome (2007).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Geddes Antiques \u0026 Antiquities","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42334302732370,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2076\/5549\/files\/GGeddes_24092025_099.jpg?v=1773719445","url":"https:\/\/grahamgeddesantiques.com.au\/products\/a-brass-falcon-headed-canopic-jar-gs-354-copy","provider":"Graham Geddes Antiques \u0026 Antiquities ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
