Large vintage Egyptian Nefertiti bust, hand painted and signed & dated 1975 on the underside.
This is a striking, oversized statement sculpture featuring Queen Nefertiti in classic Egyptian revival style. The piece has a beautifully detailed hand-painted finish with rich tones and bold geometric accents throughout the headdress and collar.
Material:
Solid and very heavy construction. Appears to be a plaster/chalkware mold with a ceramic-style hand painted finish, giving it the look and presence of ceramic while maintaining substantial weight.
Condition:
- Good vintage condition overall
- Some minor paint wear and small chips consistent with age
- Most notable chip on the back of the headdress (see close-up photo)
- Displays beautifully from the front
Size:
- Height: 20 inches (large statement piece)
- Base: approx. 8\" x 5 3/4\"
Weight:

Clearly a vintage hand-finished piece with age, character, and presence. Signed and dated on the underside.
Large 20” statement piece — significantly bigger than most similar busts.
Perfect for:
- Egyptian / Nefertiti decor
- Hollywood Regency or eclectic interiors
- Statement shelf, console, or display piece
