Cleopatra in Cartouche Silver – Egyptian jewelry

Feel unique by wearing our Cleopatra in Cartouche Silver bracelet piece. Cleopatra has been a name that has intrigued many times. Cleopatra VII ruled ancient Egypt as co-regent (first with her two younger brothers and then with her son) for almost three decades. She became the last in a dynasty of Macedonian rulers founded by Ptolemy. Ptolemy served as general under Alexander the Great during his conquest of Egypt in 332 B.C. Well-educated and clever, Cleopatra could speak various languages and served as the dominant ruler in all three of her co-regencies. Her romantic liaisons and military alliances with the Roman leaders Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, as well as her supposed exotic beauty and powers of seduction, earned her an enduring place in history and popular myth.

Ancient Egyptians believed that the Royals (Pharaohs) names are inscribed in a Cartouche for protection. Furthermore when surrounded in a circle form, this will also provide eternal protection for that name from evil spirits.

Men, women and children wore jewelry. Therefore among  Ancient Egyptians, were very skilled craftsmen . Hence the jewelry was beautiful and colorful, and was made out of copper and gold wire, gemstones, colored glass beads. Wide collars were also popular, as were rings, earrings, and bracelets worn at the wrist, upper arm and around the ankle. Hence Ancient Egyptians used jewelry for adornment, social status, and protection.

Like all our other exquisite jewelry, this bracelet is handcrafted, highly detailed, top quality & made to last a lifetime. Furthermore it bears the 925 silver stamp for authenticity purposes.
