Fly Amulet

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a blue glass or stone amulet in the shape of a fly. The amulet is made of a blue-green material with a glossy finish and some speckles of white and dark green. The fly has a round head with two small protrusions on top representing the eyes. The body is elongated, with a slight narrowing in the middle. Two long, thin wings extend out from the sides of the body. The wings are pointed at the tips. The amulet rests on a gray surface. The background surface appears to be a flat, textured gray material. The image displays the 'Fly Amulet' by an unknown artist.
