Kohl, made from crushed minerals like galena, was used for both aesthetic and spiritual purposes, believed to protect the eyes from the sun and invoke divine protection. Dimensions H:7.5cm, W: 5cm Provenance Acquired in Egypt by the great-grandparents of A.N., likely in the early 20th century, during their interactions with foreign archaeologists working in the region.
