Tutankhamun and Egypt.
These Gold Slippers and Gold Toes were in the Tomb. One wonder's if he had to wear these on Ceremonial Occasions? They look very uncomfortable. I guess these are one of the Earliest Pair of Flip Flops in the World. LOL.

This is a Replica of the Solid Gold Mask of the Pharaoh. What a Stunning Object. The Craftsmanship is Marvelous.
