    Description

    Nefertiti was a queen of Egypt and wife of King Akhenaton.
    Nefertiti is best known for her painted sandstone bust, which was rediscovered in 1913 and became a global icon of feminine beauty and power.
    I believe this single bookend is from the 1920’s or 30’s and was part of the Egyptian revival in decorating that was so popular at that time.
    The base is a wonderful honey and cream colored alabaster and the Queen is solid bronze as is the portal or pylon of Isis framing her from behind.
    It measures 6.25” wide X 4.5” deep X 5.75” tall.
    My items are “as found”.
    Please look carefully at the pictures and request additional pictures or specific information if needed.
    There is expected age-appropriate wear, it is otherwise in very good vintage condition.
    Please use the pictures as the best description of condition.
