Egyptian - Vessel with Lid - Walters 48426 - Profile

The finest of three lidded faience baskets to survive from the New Kingdom, this example shows how the artisan tried to imitate actual fiber baskets. Even the base of the vessel imitates coiled fiber. The vessel and its lid were held together by decoratively laced string.
