Nefertiti Bracelet with Cartouche Silver

Our Nefertiti Bracelet with Cartouche Silver is a beautiful addition to your unique collection. Queen Nefertiti 1351 – 1337 BC was the chief wife and consort of Akhenaten, the heretic pharaoh, during the 18th dynasty of the New kingdom.

Nefertiti attained the power and also status of a Pharaoh and co-ruler with Akhenaten during the most turbulent years in the history of ancient Egypt. When she and her husband Akhenaten started a religious revolution. The new religion centered on the worship just one god, the Aten.  Akhenaten attempted to stop the worship of the other older gods alienating both the priests and the Egyptian people.

Nefertiti meant “the beautiful (or perfect) woman has come”. Egyptologists say she was the most beautiful queen to rule Ancient Egypt. There is some speculation that when Akhenaten disappeared Nefertiti occupied the sole role as the Pharaoh. She ruled under the name of Smenkhkare Ankhetkheperure. This has never been proved and rule of the pharaoh called Smenkhkare only lasted two years, the successor was Tutankhamun.

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.

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.
