The Statuette of Neferefre is a Ka statue of king Neferefre that was found in several fragments by Czechoslovak excavations in 1984 or 1985 in the remains of his pyramid temple at Abusir. It was once about 34 cm high. The statuette is now on display in the Egyptian Museum of Cairo (JE 98171). Due to the good preservation of the face and the well-preserved colours, it is one of the most famous examples of Egyptian royal sculpture dating to the Old Kingdom.
