| A rare vessel. A spouted feminoform Nile-Silt Milk Vase, Early XVIII Dynasty, Egypt 1550 - 1307 BCE. 12" high with custom stand, intact and in excellent condition. Anthropomorphic milk jug fashioned with facial features and arms cradling breasts-spouts. The finds of Nile-silt vessels such as this one are described in great detail in Collin A.
