Miniature Verdigris Patinated Egyptian Pharaoh Bust

A small-scale replica bust of an Egyptian Pharaoh, likely modeled after the famous funerary mask of Tutankhamun. The item is characterized by its prominent nemes headdress with vertical ribbing and a frontal uraeus (cobra) symbol. The face features stylized kohl-lined eyes and a traditional false beard. Measuring approximately 2 to 3 inches in height, the piece appears to be cast from a non-ferrous metal alloy or a heavy resin, finished with a heavy, multi-toned verdigris or 'Myrano' green patina. This faux-antique finish exhibits light brown undertones where the green pigment is thinner, suggesting intentional distressing to simulate age and oxidation. The surface shows minor wear and loss of the green coating on high-relief areas such as the nose and chin, consistent with handling. The craftsmanship suggests it is a commercial souvenir or decorative object from the late 20th century. The casting quality is moderate, with some softness in the finer details of the headdress. It serves as a decorative example of 'Egyptomania' and neo-classical reproduction art.
