King Tut
These 19 handmade glass beads, inspired by an ancient art form, are made in turquoise, ivory, emerald green & often encrusted with silver foil. Detailed with an Egyptian flair, some of the chunky tabs have hieroglyphs scrolled onto them & many of the round beads have a rough intricacy to mimic a style from long, long ago. Beads average 15 x 9 mm. 18 silver spacers are also included.
Fun Fact: In Ancient Egypt, glass beads were revered as both amulets & status symbols of wealth. Signifying the value of these small & intricate treasures, some of the finest glass beads were found in King Tutankhamen’s tomb. |
