A faience beads mummy mask from Ancient Egypt, dating back to the Late Period (664–332 BCE).

The mask is meticulously composed of vibrant faience beads. The beads have been expertly arranged to depict a stylized face and body, with rich hues of turquoise, green, and gold predominating.
Provenance: From Mariaud de Serres collection, Paris 1980-90s.
