From the Museo Egizio record
Standing figure of Ptah, wearing a tight-fitting dress which leaves the wrists and hands uncovered. He is wearing the skullcap. Ptah has a false beard connected to the upper chest. The arms are bent and the fists, the right one positioned above the left and resting tightly on the torso, hold the was-sceptre. There is a broken square tenon under the feet. The object is made in the lost-wax technique for solid casts. Dimensions: 2.1 cm x 6.3 cm x 1.2 cm. Museum location: Museum / Floor 2A / Mezzanine / Cabinet 05 Metal / Shelf 04.
