Here is a set of five udjat-eyes found in the same New Kingdom tomb. The design of these pieces is very stylised. The eyebrow, the back of the eye as well as the uppermost section of the eye are not only incised by also perforated. Three of the pieces are made of a white or yellow enamel paste, the other two are blue-green. Each of these udjat-eyes is pierced longitudinally, thus allowing for its suspension.

Le sourcil, le fond de l'oeil et la partie inférieure de l'oeil n'étant pas simplement incisés mais perforés. Trois pièces sont en pâte émaillée blanche ou jaune, deux sont bleu-vert. Chacun de ces yeux-oudjat est perforé sur la longueur afin de permettre leur suspension.
