Make a dramatic statement with this
stunning museum replica of ancient Egyptian art!
This
marvelous mask of King Tut 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.
The
original was decorated by many semi-precious stones and glass suitable to a
pharaoh. For example, on the original, the usual Nemes headdress knotted back
at the nape of the neck was a striped blue-green imitating lapis lazuli. The
Uraeus and vulture head in gold inlaid with semi-precious stones and colored
glass, ornamented the brow. The mask’s eyes were made of obsidian and quartz
with a touch of red at the corners: the cosmetic lines and the lids were of
inlaid blue glass. The divine beard, plaited and turned up at the end, was of
cloisonné work (colored glass held in a framework of gold.) The wide necklace
collar was formed of rows of lapis lazuli, quartz, amazonite and colored glass
beads attached at each shoulder to a gold falcon’s head ornamented with
obsidian.
This
mask presents us with a beautiful albeit idealized portrait of the young
Egyptian Pharaoh King.
