Model Size (Scale)
All authenticated replicas are produced at 1:1 scale of the original piece
This gorgeous artifact, wonderfully replicated here by Konouz, speaks to the ancient Egyptians’ sense of aesthetics and artistic skill. Although in agreement on this artifact’s funerary purpose, Egyptologists differ on its precise use. It may have been used to contain the mummy of a sacred falcon. Alternatively, the Four Sons of Horus, the guardians of the four organs canonically removed during mummification, are depicted on the shrine’s sides, suggesting that it was instead for the mummified organs.
This piece is accompanied by Certificate A , issued by Konouz in collaboration with the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities. It confirms that the replica faithfully reproduces the original artifact at 1:1 scale , with careful attention to its form, surface treatment, and detail.
