Presumably a 20th century (or possibly Victorian) souvenir from someone's tour to Egypt. Executed in the manor of a traditional canopic jar cover (but lacking the finished round bottom) and from the expected alabaster material. What could make a more appropriate travel memoir than this head of an Egyptian Pharaoh? And if you can't go soon (perhaps more unlikely in these times), maybe this decoration will take you a little closer at least in mind. Good condition. About 5 1/2 " tall. It has a little hoist so we will need to ship at cost.
