Small Egyptian amulet-like object depicting a seated/standing divine figure with spread arms, holding a central element resembling a double-feathered or plumed symbol.

The image shows a small, light-colored molded/ceramic (or glazed) figure viewed from the front. The figure has a bald/covered head and a stylized face, with both arms extended outward and downward into rounded hands. A large, semi-circular element behind the head (resembling a protective backing or a pair of raised “wings/arms”) frames the head. At the center above the torso the head is connected to a narrow neck and then to a vertical core that includes a small, beaded/necklace-like band. At the top of the figure’s body is an element that could be a feather/plume form; the exact iconographic details are somewhat worn/soft, so specific identification beyond “amulet of divine form” is cautious. The object rests on a base or has a collector’s label; the only clearly legible text is “1860” painted on the bottom label. No cartouches or readable hieroglyphic groups are clearly visible on the object itself.
