I Love You Cartouche – Sterling Silver Open – Made in Egypt

Description

Say ‘I Love You’ with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics! Because the hieroglyphic alphabet is based on phonetics, the word ‘you’ is represented by the ‘U’ sounding symbol of the ‘chick.’ Handmade in the ancient bazaar of Khan el Khalili in Cairo, Egypt. Available in sterling silver that has been stamped by the Egyptian government to certify its authenticity. This is for a pendant only and does not include a chain. So what exactly is a cartouche? A cartouche is the nameplate or seal that was used by ancient Egyptian royalty as a powerful amulet of protection for all eternity. The oval shape is encircled by a rope, tied in a knot at the bottom, and symbolized ‘all that the sun encompasses’.
