Bead Bracelet of Queen Ahhotep Em-1-610


This bracelet of Queen Ahhotep, which is one of a pair, was found along with other jewels inside her sarcophagus. It was given to her as a present by her son, King Ahmose the First, whose name was mentioned on the golden clasp.

His name is encrusted in gold on a blue background.

The bracelet is composed of 30 rows of gold beads and semiprecious stones, alternating with each other in a special design to form triangles and squares.

The clasp is made out of two gold sheets that slide within each other to close the bracelet tight.
