King Tut Golden Egyptian Sphinx Limoges Box (Retired)

RETIRED
 
Egypt's Most Famous Pharaoh!    If you admire the ancient wonders of Egypt, you will love this Limoges box representing the bust of TUTANKHAMUN (King Tut), the young Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty, the New Kingdom.  Hand-painted in blue with generous use of 24K Gold, the bust rests on a black base.   Inside is a 24K Gold inscription "Everywhere the glint of gold" - a quote from Howard Carter, the archeologist who discovered King Tut's tomb.   Artfully hand-painted with great detailing, the Limoges box is crafted of fine French porcelain by artisans in Limoges, France.  Hand-fitted metalwork and a clasp in the shape of an Egyptian Sphynx adorn the collectible Limoges box.  Fully marked at the base with the hallmark of the artist.  The Limited Edition Limoges box comes in its handsome satin-lined presentation box in the shape of a pyramid.
