Rectangular Hieroglyphic Egyptian Cartouche Necklace

Profile picture for user victrolagirl

Description

My engraved rectangular gold hieroglyphic Egyptian cartouche necklace is from Galal Jewellery in the Bazaar of Khan El Khalili in Cairo, Egypt. I believe it is from the 1970s, and I am not sure if it is made of gold or only gold-plated silver. It is engraved with the hieroglyphics that spell "Susan".
