The British Museum has an amulet with the Set animal in a similar pose:
![]() Wooden amuletic figure of a seated Seth animal, Ramesside Period Width: 2.02 centimetres, Height: 5.82 centimetres, Depth: 3.93 centimetres Registration number: 1899,0314.12 BM/Big number: 30460
"Wooden amuletic figure of a seated Seth creature; the edge of the base(damaged) is inscribed with an offering formula to Seth." Not just the base is damaged, the ears and tip of snout have been lost. I try to imagine what it might have looked like when new:

![]() "Leiden A 423. Photograph of the Museum of Antiquities at Leiden"
![]() "PI. ix, no. 14. Limestone figure of the god Set."
PI. ix, no. 15. Small dyad of the gods Ptah and Bast in glazed steatite. PI. ix, no. 16. Green glazed figure of the goddess Ta-urt. The figure is really a pot, so constructed that when filled with water, it runs out through holes in the breasts. Beneath the stomach is the Sa amulet, which this goddess is usually seen holding in the hand. The original is about 74 inches high. Nos. 14, 15, and 16 are now in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford." _Riqqeh and Memphis VI_ by R. Engelbach, with chapters by M.A. Murray, H. Flinders Petrie and W.M. Flinders Petrie (Online at Etana.org)
I took a look at the Flicker photos tagged 'Ashmolean' and went through all 65 pages without seeing any of these three items. I rather hoped at least the unusual Taweret would catch some camera's eye. I'll keep searching, though.
Meanwhile, I have found an alabaster figurine, about six inches tall, at the Global Egyptian Museum website, item housed at the Belgian "Les Musées royaux d'Art et d'Histoire (MRAH)"
It's in bad shape, but still recognizable:
