A tiny #Egyptian #frog amulet, made of carnelian (height 0.9 cm). Because of their numerous offspring, #frogs were considered a symbol of fertility. Dating c. 1540-1296 BC, New Kingdom.

A lovely weekend to all of you

@ninawillburger I wish to eat the forbidden gummy.

@ninawillburger today we learned that Russian politician Alexey Navalny was killed by Ecuadorian frog poison. Maybe not the most fortunate choice of object on this sad day.

How qute!

If you didn't say it's Aegyptian I would think it's Art Nouveau, 'Jugendstil'.

A timeless beauty!

Would be a a bestseller at IKEA, I will bet!
