Listing is for a vintage hand carved soapstone sculpture of a beetle with stylized ram horns & hieroglyphics on underside. This is known as an amulet, aka good luck charm, & would be included in the coffin for the journey to the afterlife. About 3" long. Not sure of age, somewhere after ancient & likely first half 20th century as tourist piece. As found; little white scuffs present. Vintage Egyptian Beetle Soapstone Amulet
