Osiris
A small mummiform statuette of the god Osiris in dark cupreous metal, with patinated green-brown surfaces. The god wears the tall atef crown and holds a crook and flail crossed on his chest, standing on a tang-like base set on a pale wooden block against a plain gray background.
Look closer: A small loop or tang projects from the base of the statuette, the means by which it was once attached or hung.
