Description   Egyptian Museum, Cairo Dynasty XVIII, 1347-1237 B.C. This marvelous mask of excellent workmanship protected the head of the mummy of Tutankhamun. Further protection was assured by a magic formula engraved on the shoulders and the back of the mask. On the original funerary mask, the usual Nemes headdress knotted back at the nape of the neck, is a striped blue-green imitating lapis lazuli. The Uraeus and vulture head in gold inlaid with semi-precious stones and colored glass, ornaments the brow. The maskís eyes are made of obsidian and quartz with a touch of red at the corners: the cosmetic lines and the lids are of inlaid blue glass. The divine beard, plaited and turned up at the end, is of cloisonnÈ work (colored glass held in a framework of gold.) The wide necklace collar is formed of rows of lapis lazuli, quartz, amazonite and colored glass beads attached at each shoulder to a gold falconís head ornamented with obsidian. This mask presents us with a beautiful albeit idealized portrait of the young King. Our reproduction is true in color and beauty to the original with painted gold and color details.   Related Products...
