| Embossed with a scene of the Sphinx and pyramids of Giza, this is a wonderful tan leather jewelry case measuring 7 3/4 in.L by 5 1/2 in.W, hand made and tooled. Each corner of the top of the case is tooled in a darker color with a detailed knotwork design, giving the case a rich look and setting off the center scene. Encircled as if viewed through a telescope, the Sphinx and pyramids of Giza, built by Pharaoh Khufu (Cheops), his son Khafre and his grandson, Menkaure, stand against their desert background as a man seated on a camel gazes at them. |
