Color Alteration of Ancient Egyptian Blue Faience
International Journal of Architectural Heritage, 2013Four different colored faience tiles were found in South Tomb of King Djoser in Saqqara, Egypt. The tiles suffer from various deterioration aspects, mainly color alteration, which occurred as a result of the reaction between present salts and the free copper ions of blue faience and changing it into greenish blue, dark green, and light green.

Egyptian faience and rose gold at Mochlos, Crete
Surface Engineering, 2013The Mycenaean necklace found in a tomb in the Limenaria cemetery at Mochlos, Crete, consists of a row of faience beads and a central gold bead, and it is dated to the LM IIIA period (about 1400–1300 BC). Studies on faience have shown that different production technologies were used in this period: efflorescence, cementation and direct application ...

Laboratory production of Egyptian faiences and their characterization
Journal of Cultural Heritage, 2008Abstract This article reports work on the reproduction and characterization of ancient Egyptian faiences by efflorescence and cementation methods. Previously, a series of reported investigations have clarified the chemical composition of these very particular artefacts but until now no attempts at reproduction have been carried out in order to fully ...

Mycenaean and Egyptian faience beads discovered in southern Poland
Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports, 2019Abstract Four faience beads discovered in southern Poland, in graves dated to roughly 1600–1100 BCE, have been the object of an archaeometric study, four with the LA-ICP-MS method and one additionally with the EPMA method. Two beads have good formal parallels from territories associated with Mycenaean culture.

Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports, 2021
Abstract Jewellery made from faience beads are frequently recovered from Middle Kingdom tombs at Abydos, Egypt. Through the passage of time, many of these artefacts became displaced from their original context due to post-depositional disturbances. We measured the elemental compositions of nine beaded faience artefacts to determine whether or not it ...

Non-DestructiveIn Situ Study of Ancient Egyptian Faience by Raman Microscopy
Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, 1997An in situ, non-destructive study of the coloured glaze on ancient Egyptian faience objects has been performed. The research was undertaken to examine further the effectiveness of Raman microscopy as a tool for archaeometric analysis. Initial studies revealed that faience pigmentation could not be analysed when beneath the glaze but only through cross ...
