Glass pendant in the shape of Harpokrates

Greek, Eastern Mediterranean
late 2nd–1st century BCE

Translucent purple.

Solid, vertical pendant, with mold marks running up sides of figure, over his head, and under his feet; on his back a small vertical suspension loop.

Harpokrates, standing facing front, with curly hair topped with a small version of the double crown of Egypt, wearing large globular earrings, naked, left arm at side, right arm bent up across his chest and his forefinger pressed to his lips.

Complete, except for suspension loop; very faint weathering.

Probably made in the same mold as 17.194.420.

Purple figure with perforated handle.
