Product Description

Jewellery was an integral part of ancient Egyptian culture, worn for both decorative and symbolic purposes. Nearly everyone wore some kind of jewellery - men, women and children, kings, queens and common people alike. This kit contains the necessary components to make a range of Egyptian jewellery including earrings, necklaces and bracelets. The accompanying book provides step-by-step instructions and clear easy-to-follow diagrams. The beads have been researched to provide the most authentic reproduction of ancient faience and the kit also includes a specially designed jewellery-making tool.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring, Mar 16 2008

By Gabe Maida "Gabe" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Fun with Beads: Ancient Egypt (Hardcover)

I've had this book for over ten years,(First got it when I was eleven, and am 22 now), and I was elated when I found it again in old moving boxes.

The directions in the book are very easy to follow, good enough that a kid with no jewelry experience could make the big blue and gold necklace featured on the cover, and I still wear it today.

Re-reading the book today is very inspiring for other projects with similar designs, even though I've long since used up the beads. This had to have been one of my favorite things when I was growing up.
