Carter Snapbti - Khesbedj

Carter Snapbti - KhesbedjA blue green faience Snapbti inspired by the brilliant colour of lapis lazuli. In Ancient Egypt, faience was a quartz based ceramic associated with rebirth, protection and the divine. The name Khesbedj referred to the deep blue of lapis lazuli, a colour linked to the heavens and eternity itself. This Snapbti carries that same presence. Still. Sacred. Watching from beneath the dust of ages. Its blue green glaze does not waver or blink, as though

But you don’t have to

He does not creep

A neck built above it

the Hikey Lady walks lightly across moss and leaf

or the shore of the land spotted glittering strands

but for what remains beneath it

a colour linked to the heavens and eternity itself

She remembers

Where things shift quietly from one owner to another

To protect secrets too heavy for words

It was abandoned

and alive with change
