The name of Thoth in hieratic: throw cushion

£25.99

Description

Thoth was a true academic; the god of knowledge and the inventor of writing. He was a record-keeper and accountant, as well as messenger, mediator and advisor to the other gods. He also recorded the passing of time and possessed special magic and knowledge unknown to even the other gods.

This print is of the hieratic writing of the name Thoth. Hieratic was the everyday, cursive version of hieroglyphs used by scribes. The hieroglyph used primarily to write the name ‘Djehuty’ was an ibis on a standard; the elegant swoosh of the beak and back make the bird recognisable, even in cursive form.

This piece is from a page of the Book of the Dead from the collection at the Garstang Museum of Archaeology in Liverpool (accession number E.507(1)). It has been photographed using a macro lens to bring out the detail in the brush strokes and lit to highlight the texture of the papyrus. The owner of the manuscript was a woman called Tjawtayundenit, a songstress of Amun-Re who lived in Thebes during the 21st Dynasty (1069–945 BC).

And now you can show off your Egyptology geekery by relaxing with this gorgeous throw cushion.

These soft, yet hard-wearing, 33 × 48 cm cushions are made from faux suede and each one is individually cut and sewn by hand. The design is printed on the front, with a stone-colour back.

These cushions are handmade from soft, luxurious faux suede, and each one is made to order, usually dispatched within 3 days. This means that resources are used only as and when needed.

Cushions are produced and dispatched from either the UK or the US, depending on where they’re being delivered, reducing the environmental impact and cost of delivery. They’re delivered in a tough, tear-resistant, mailing bag featuring a bubble-interior for added protection.

Please note that computer monitors and mobile devices can show colours in slightly different ways and intensities. If the colours on your cushion don’t look quite the same as how they look on your screen, this is why. However, if there’s an obvious problem with print quality, please get let me know so I can organise a replacement.

When your order arrives, if the colours on your product don’t look quite the same as how they look on your screen, please remember that computer monitors and mobile devices can show colours in slightly different ways and intensities. However, if there’s an obvious problem with print quality – or your product arrives damaged – please let me know, along with some photos, so I can organise a replacement.

If delivery is significantly delayed (excluding longer delivery times during busy periods or times of strike action), please let me know so we can come up with a solution.

If, when you receive your order, you change your mind, you can return it within 14 days of delivery for a refund or store credit. Just drop me an email if this is the case. Please remember, however, that I am one person, and that I don’t have the financial cushion that large retailers do to be able to offset the cost of returns for the sake of, e.g., trying different sizes or designs. Thanks!
