Item: Bastet in Cat Form-SB257
The powerful protector goddess of lower Egypt, Bastet `s, or Bast`s, very name means "the devourer," indicating the ferocity for which she was known in defending her own. This small statue offers a representation of her not unlike that which was found in ancient Egypt. Standing 5 3/4" tall and 3 3/4" deep, it is the image of a cat sitting on her haunches and decorated in the jewels of Egyptian royalty, and marked with the Eye of Horus. The whole of the cold-cast resin sculpture is also black, with the exception of gold accents that clearly illustrate Bastet`s features. |
