This marble Wedjat Eye amulet, an iconic symbol from the Egyptian Revival period, measures 6 cm by 4 cm. The Wedjat, or Eye of Horus, is an ancient Egyptian symbol of protection, royal power, and good health. The revival of this motif in the 19th century reflects the period's fascination with ancient Egyptian aesthetics and mythology. This particular piece is carved from pure marble, a material chosen for its lasting quality and luxurious finish. Its size and polished surface suggest it may have been a decorative object in a Victorian-era household, aligning with the 19th-century trend of incorporating Egyptian motifs into Western art and architecture. The amulet’s fine craftsmanship and excellent state of preservation make it a desirable collectible for those interested in the historical intersection of Egyptian influence and Western art.
