Description
The ancient Egyptians have left us some of the most exquisite art ever made. This series of photo pendants features iconic egyptian art.
The ankh, also known as breath of life, the key of the Nile or crux ansata (Latin meaning "cross with a handle," was the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic character that read "life." It represents the concept of eternal life, which is the general meaning of the symbol. The ankh appears in hand or in proximity of almost every deity in the Egyptian pantheon (including Pharaohs). Thus it is fairly and widely understood as a symbol of early religious pluralism: all sects believed in a common story of eternal life, and this is the literal meaning of the symbol. This rationale contributed to the adoption of the ankh by New Age mysticism in the 1960s, to mean essentially the same tolerance of diversity of belief and common ethics as in Ancient Egypt.
Baast, the cat goddess, aka Bastet, was a goddess in ancient Egypt. As Bast, she was the goddess of warfare in Lower Egypt, the Nile River delta region, before the unification of the cultures of ancient Egypt. Her name is also spelled Baast, Ubaste, and Baset.
Horus was the ancient Egyptian sky god who was usually depicted as a falcon, most likely a lanner or peregrine falcon. His right eye was associated with the sun god, Ra. The eye symbol represents the marking around the eye of the falcon, including the "teardrop" marking sometimes found below the eye. The mirror image, or left eye, sometimes represented the moon and the god Djehuti (Thoth).
Isis was worshipped as the ideal mother and wife as well as the patroness of nature and magic. She was the friend of slaves, sinners, artisans and the downtrodden, but she also listened to the prayers of the wealthy, maidens, aristocrats and rulers. Isis is often depicted as the mother of Horus, the falcon-headed deity associated with king and kingship (although in some traditions Horus's mother was Hathor). Isis is also known as protector of the dead and goddess of children.
The Egyptian god Khepri, Ra as the rising sun, was often depicted as a scarab beetle or as a scarab beetle-headed man. The ancient Egyptians believed that Khepri renewed the sun every day before rolling it above the horizon, then carried it through the other world after sunset, only to renew it, again, the next day.

Payment
Paypal is the only form of online payment we are accepting. If you require another method, please contact us.
Shipping
The stated handling time for orders is 7 days from receiving a cleared payment. In most cases orders are shipped within 3 business days of receiving payment. The reason for the 7 day handling time is because I have developed neurological issues that flare frome time to time and it takes me longer to fullfill orders. eBay penalizes me for late shipping so I have adjusted the domestic handling time to 7 days to stay out of trouble with them.
Shipping days are the days our carriers accept shipments. Saturdays, Sundays and holidays taken by our carriers are
not
considered shipping days.
E-check users
please note that it can take up to four business days - not calendar days - for an e-check to clear. Once the e-check clears we will ship within three business days.

only.
In most cases, items are shipped by
USPS First Class Mail
to both domestic and foreign addresses.
Please note that eBay lists USPS First Class mail an "expedited service" which may lead buyers to assume this means overnight or one-day shipping. We ship USPS First Class, not overnight or one-day. First Class mail in most instances has the same delivery time as USPS Priority Mail.
