These Egyptian Ankh earrings are 1.5 inches long. We use antique silver plated pewter for a beautiful, long-lasting finish. The earrings have an ear wire.
The ankh is the hieroglyphic symbol for “life†in ancient Egyptian writing and represents divine or eternal existence. People wore amulets like this believing them to possess unusual powers. Egyptians placed amulets in the linen wrappings of mummies hoping to protect the dead and ensure eternal life.
