I have a little bronze Nefertiti. It’s about 30 years old, so not an antique quite yet.
Around here there used to be some kind of half-ash tray of zinc or some other base metal, the head of Nefertiti stickin’ up. Some friends or relatives of one of my parents brought it back from Egypt. Hmm. Now I wonder if it got tossed, one of the tiny legs crumbled off it.
It looked a little better than this one, but I doubt ours was made of brass:
