In the Middle Kingdom, the blue marble, which was quite rare in Egypt, has often been used in the manufacture of cosmetic pots. This small Brussel example which was part of the funerary material from a tomb in Abydos, served as a make up container which was applied with the aid of a short stick. The example which was found in the container dates nevertheless from the New Kingdom. (E.2362).

Au Moyen Empire, le marbre bleu, qui était assez rare en Égypte, a souvent été utilisé à la fabrication de pots à fard. Ce petit exemplaire de Bruxelles, qui faisait partie du matériel funéraire d'une tombe d'Abydos, servait à contenir le maquillage qui était appliqué à l'aide d'un bâtonnet. L'exemplaire qui se trouve dans le récipient date néanmoins du Nouvel Empire (E. 2362).

Im Mittleren Reich wurde der in Ägypten sehr seltene blaue Marmor häufig zur Herstellung von Schminkgefäßen verwendet.

Das in dem Behälter befindliche Exemplar datiert jedoch in das Neue Reich (E.2362).
