Netsuke of of a Priestling Asleep over a Stonemill. Japan. 18th century. Pottery covered with a mottled black and yellow glaze.. Edo period (1615-1868). NetsukeAegis of Bastet / Sakhmet 664-30 BC Late Period-Ptolemaic Period The aegis is an object that comprises the bust of a deity with a broad collar below it. Broad collars are generally accompanied by a menat, a counterpoise that hangs at the back of the neck, balancing the weight of the heavy, elaborate collar on the chest. Although this piece only shows the deitys head and broad collar, it represents the aegis-menat combination, which was not only a personal adornment but also played an important role in cult. It was a protective symbol and was used in rituals and festivals; the head allowed the deity to inhabit the ritual instrument and thus take part in the ceremonies. In this case, a lion-headed goddess is represented wearing a sun disk. These types of ritual objects are most closely associated with goddesses, especially Bastet, who may be shown here in her leonine form. This aegis has a large suspension loop at the back, possibly for use as an amulet. It also could have been held by Roll with white ribbon with one frayed silk and three light blue horizontal stripes, c. 1930 Roll with white ribbon with one frayed side and three light blue horizontal stripes.

(4.1 x 13.8 x 13.8 cm), Xing ware Porcelaneous stoneware with clear glaze, China, 9th century, White stoneware with a glazed surface made its appearance in the northern dynasties (420-589). The production of high-fired white stoneware was a major achievement; it broke away from the stereotypical celadon preceding it, helped create the taste for fine porcelain, and set the stage for overglaze painted stoneware. In the Sui Tang period (6th-7th centuries), white stoneware achieved renown in north China where it was originally produced.Jar. Culture: Japan. Dimensions: H. 2 1/2 in. (6.4 cm); Diam. 2 5/8 in.

(76.8 cm). Date: late 13th-early 14th century.This tray has concentric bands of decoration around a central Sun disk. Included in the bands are personifications of the six planets and the twelve signs of the Zodiac, coursing animals, and an inscription (the titles of a Mamluk official) with medallions containing a falconer, polo players, and seated musicians.In the Arabic tradition, the constellation of Sagittarius was known as al-rami, "the archer," while the corresponding Zodiac sign was known as al-qaws, "the bow." As a result, representations of the Zodiac sign, a centaur shooting an arrow from his bow, combine aspects of the two. The image of the centaur here also has the upper body of the mythical beast, which can be interpreted as an image of Jupiter, Sagittarius' Planetary Lord.
