The first articles of jewellery were crude and were made from materials such as snail shells, ostrich eggs, bones, teeth, and even berries.
It was only around 7000 years ago that the first articles of copper jewellery started to appear. These were more advanced, but still lacked the refinement that was to come 2000 years later with the jewellery made in Ancient Egypt.
Around 3000-5000 years ago, Ancient Egypt started to produce jewellery that was far more luxurious than any made before. They were a rich society and jewellery was now crafted out of far more expensive materials such as gold. Jewellery became a symbol of wealth and power, and was not only worn in life, but in death also.
Recently on a trip to Egypt we managed to acquire a few items of beautiful jewellery which will soon be available in our shop for sale at bargain prices.
Please visit again soon and check them out.
For now, please don't forget to visit our shop
Happy shopping!
