About Us
Talisman Ancient Egyptian Jewellery is the result of a life-long fascination for Egypt: its history, people, food, culture and everything Egyptian. With my great friend, and guide, Ahmed Khalifa I have travelled the length and breadth of the country from the bustling metropolis of Cairo to the serenity of the River Nile, its West Bank and many historical sites including the majestic Abu Simbel, Dendera, Luxor Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Esna Temple - just to name a few.
As well as being jewellery items, which can be worn purely for their aesthetic beauty, they were also worn by the Ancient Egyptians as Amulets and Talismen (Arabic translation 'Tilasin') as they had an important characteristic of its alleged power to protect its owner from harm. In Ancient Egypt amulets were worn by both the living and the dead (the afterlife was very important to them) - some protected the wearer against specific dangers and others endowed him/her with special characterisitcs ie: strength and fiercenes - often in the shape of animals eg. the Bastet Cat for protection; the Lotus Flowoer for love; the Ankh for protection and long life to name but a few. Talisman Ancient Egyptian Jewellery is an online shop specialising in authentic silver Egyptian jewellery and artifacts.
