Egyptian Jewelry |
Gold was called "Dehim" in ancient Egypt. The martial was highly appreciated by people back then regarding the fact that the sun God "RA" had golden flesh , silver bones and lapis lazuli hair. wearing gold was a godly thing. this explains why kings amongst 'That Ankh Amon" was imbedded in the most inner pure gold coffin. More over mining gold was restricted on the king along with making paper "papyrus" and international trade.
Working as jeweler was a distinguished job. every king had his won group of artisans. one of the most famous symbols is the royal cartouche;
FRONT BACK

Small = 65$ Medium =75$ Large = 85$
The cartouche first started with 4th dynasty (2700 BC). The first king to have one was king “Senefru”, father of Chiops builder of the great pyramid.
It is surprising to a lot of Americans to know that the cartouche is the lasso of the caw boy, but it is !!
In ancient Egypt there were a lot small tribes living side by side on the Nile valley. The leader of the tripe was the cleverest hunter. His logo was the lasso. Even after thousands of years when those trips were united by one king of Egypt, that king held the lasso as his logo.
Looking at the lasso it has no begging and it has no end. So it is eternity they believed writing the name of the pharaoh inside this lasso it will be immortalized.
Later they elongated this lasso shape to an oval shape to be called Cartouche = cylinder in Greek.
All kings of Egypt till the last dynasty wrote their names into cartouches. Even Alexander the great, Ptolemy's, and Cleopatra who invaded Egypt, their names were found written in cartouches in the Egyptian monuments.
Today every one can be a king/queen and have his/her name written inside a cartouche.
