Hi Dr Mostafa,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
So that we can appraise this Shabti as correctly as possible, can you please upload additional photos showing it from the sides and back?
Additionally, this appears to be carved stone rather than faience - do you have documentation that suggests otherwise you can share?
Finally, did the dealer or gallery you acquired this from provide you with any details about its history or provenance?
