Description: | Faience open work dark blue wadjet eye ring. 'These faience rings were manufactured from two separate clay molds, as evidenced by the hundred recovered from excavations at the site of Amarna. Faience paste was pressed into separate molds for the bezel and the shank, and the resulting pieces were jointed together with a slurry of the core material. Glaze was then applied and the whole ring fired'.
