Ancient Egyptian gold is known to all of us. But what was the significance of gold in Ancient Egyptian society? Where was it found and how was it won? And where did the Ancient Egyptian goldsmith work and what techniques did he master? The first part of this book answers the questions mentioned above. The second part is a catalogue of gold objects which are part of the renowned and outstanding collection of the Egyptian Department of the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden. By means of a technical examination of these objects, this book gives a unique and innovatory insight in the work of the ancient Egyptian goldsmith, who was able to accomplish true work of art though working in hot and basic circumstances.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marielle Bulsink\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 2503553672\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9782503553672\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brepols Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/27\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20h x 8.50w x 0.70d","brand":"Marielle Bulsink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49148304163071,"sku":"9782503553672","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/egyptian-gold-jewellery-marielle-bulsink-9782503553672","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
