Bastet was the goddess of protection and pleasure, bestowing good health upon others. Given she had the head of a cat and a slender female body, ancient Egyptians considered all cats to be demi-deities not only because they physically incarnated Bastet, but because they protected crops and slowed the spread of disease by killing vermin. See the variety of styles and hues available in the entire Tappeti x YSG 'Real Majik' Collection Due to the handmade nature of our rugs, slight variations in colour may occur between different dye batches. These variations are a natural characteristic of artisanal craftsmanship and can vary from order to order, especially in the case of re-orders or stock replenishments. If colour accuracy is crucial for your project, please contact our studio before placing your order to discuss your specific requirements.
