Circa 4th-6th Century AD

We are pleased to offer a group of three wonderful ancient bone applicators dating from the late Rome / Early Coptic period. This is the period when Christianity had been entrenched across Egypt and Roman North Africa. 

The largest of the group, dark beige, appears to have been a hair pin. The end of the pin carved with a notch.  The second item is in the form of a small scoop with a carved bowl at the end.  The third item, ivory colored with a greenish tint at the end, was likely used for application of some sort of makeup. 

Lovely group. 

Provenance:   Ex-Gilbert Collection, New England which was assembled in the 1930's by a gentleman who traveled extensively through the Levant and Middle East. 

Dimensions:   About 4" long for the largest, 3-1/8" for the shortest.
