Machine-generated from the object's image on Jul 2026. Not curatorial; treat deities, names, and signs below as the model's best reading, not authority.
A small, dark stone amulet shaped like a stylized vertical figure or emblem, photographed against a plain light background.
The object is a narrow, vertically oriented stone piece with a broader rounded section near the upper-middle and a tapering form toward the top. The top ends in a flared/rounded collar-like shape, while the lower portion narrows to a rounded base. A distinct horizontal boundary is visible around the midsection, suggesting different molded segments. The surface is dark gray to black with uneven weathering/patina and slight edge rounding consistent with age and handling. No clearly legible hieroglyphs or inscriptions are visible, and no cartouches can be confirmed from the image. The image does not show diagnostic details such as a crown, animal attributes, or facial features that would unequivocally identify Nephthys, though the overall form is consistent with a small amuletic stone object as described in the catalogue.
