Hippo Figurine

Bring the magic and symbolism of Ancient Egypt into your home with this handcrafted Taweret hippo figurine, inspired by the protective goddess of childbirth and fertility. Each miniature statue is handmade in Luxor, Egypt from durable polymer resin, with a warm yellow pigment highlighting the delicate lotus flower details—a design that echoes the artistry of ancient faience hippos.

Measuring approximately 2" x 1" x 0.75", this small yet meaningful piece is rich in history and symbolism. In Ancient Egypt, hippo statuettes represented life, regeneration, and rebirth, drawing inspiration from the animal’s natural vitality and the decorative lotus motif. These figures were often placed in tombs to grant the deceased regenerative power and a promise of rebirth in the afterlife.

Taweret, whose name means “She Who Is Great”, was revered as a guardian goddess, offering protection during childbirth and promoting fertility and well-being. This figurine makes a unique gift for lovers of Egyptian mythology, history enthusiasts, or collectors of meaningful cultural artifacts.
