Description

Ptah is represented sitting, his feet resting on a flat base shaped as the hieroglyph for maat with a tenon below. His body is enveloped by a tightly fitting robe leaving exposed only his hands holding a was-scepter; he wears a scull-cap, a broad collar and an artificial beard. The collar and the transversal bars of the scepter are inlaid with gold.
