Description
This decorative reproduction of the ancient Egyptian Queen Nefertiti was produced by Veronese Design. The bust is manufactured in cold-cast bronze, a composite of resin and bronze powder, and features a dark bronze patina on the skin surfaces. The sculpture follows the iconic Amarna period style, depicting the queen wearing her characteristic flat-topped blue crown. The crown is detailed with a golden headband and a central uraeus cobra, with horizontal decorative bands hand-painted in terracotta, green, and gold. The figure is further embellished with a wide wesekh collar featuring multiple rows of beaded ornamentation in coordinating colours. The sculpture is cast as a single unit with an integral rectangular base. The reverse of the base is incised with the mark © 2000 Veronese.
Height: 32 cm
Width: 16.5 cm.
