Terracotta bead collar – Ancient Egypt Elegant necklace composed of numerous terracotta beads, from ancient Egyptian tradition, currently strung to form a long strand of approximately 1 meter in length.

The matte surface, the color variations, and the small signs of wear contribute to the piece a marked archaeological presence. The considerable length of the necklace allows the rhythmic succession of the beads to be appreciated and gives it an important decorative effect, both on display in a vitrine and when presented on a stand. Cultural origin: Ancient Egypt Material: Terracotta Total length: approx. 100 cm Diameter of the beads: approx. 4 mm Condition: in keeping with its age, with wear, deposits and tonal variations typical of the material.
