A collection of 21 modern decorative sculptural objects, predominantly executed in dark-colored resin or synthetic materials, designed to mimic ancient artifacts. The majority of the collection is in the Egyptian Revival style, featuring numerous figurines and busts, including a large bust of Nefertiti, seated pharaohs, the goddess Bastet (seated cat), sphinxes, and three small pyramidal models bearing simulated hieroglyphic carvings. The collection includes a square piece of dark, textured slate rock set on a metal easel, painted with a brightly colored winged scarab (Khepri) motif in blue, red, and gold. Included are several pieces outside the Egyptian theme: a standing classical male nude figure, two figures modeled after Chinese Terracotta Army warriors (one brown, one dark), one tall, black carved figure in the style of a Pacific Northwest totem pole, and a large dark head/mask. Three pieces exhibit a green/blue faux faience or verdigris patina: a seated female figure, a small scarab, and a Sobek-style plaque.
