Wax Bust Ex Voto-black 130 G

This ex-voto was found during archaeological excavations in Syria during the 1850s. It was most likely an offering to a Syrian deity.

As part of its collaboration with the Réunion des Musées Nationaux (The French National Museum Organization), Cire Trudon presents reproductions in various colored waxes.
