Combined throne and body are about nine inches tall (23cm)
This artwork has been a long time in coming. I made the thrones in 2017, and they came back from the foundry in 2018.
I made armatures for both Set and Horus at that time, too. For a long time, the "bony" armatures sat on their respective thrones. Finally, early this year, I faced my fear and got sculpting, at least on Set's statue.

The 6cm wide mat he sits upon...
I am so glad to have statues of both Set and Hathor now. I was worried that he might be taller than her statue. That simply wouldn't do! I needn't have worried:
