A worn ancient Egyptian coffin face mask, featuring large, almond-shaped eyes with dark, outlined rims. The face has a serene expression, though much of the surface has flaked away, revealing patches of the original material beneath. The remaining paint is faded, with a mix of beige, brown, and white tones. The mask's weathered appearance reflects its age and long history. Add to board
