[QUOTE="Hi2022, post: 4410333, member: 48641"]I bought this wooden box with inlaid pieces at auction a few years ago. [ATTACH=full]374416[/ATTACH] box seems inlaid with coppery metal, ivory or bone, shell-like pieces, red blue yellow natural stones or glass pieces?? on different sides you see hyegrolic/egyptian signs that I can't read. one corner piece is missing, but the rest looks neat. only the bottom is quite scratched. [ATTACH=full]374415[/ATTACH] i would love to know more about this box. when was it made? what story does it tell, the meaning of the egyptian symbols ? the names of the material used? are these real stones or colorod glaze?, ivory, bone or plastic? mother of pearl or metalic glaze?? thanks in advance[/QUOTE]
