'The Winged Scarab'

Egyptian Museum & Collectible Shadowbox Diorama

Handmade

 ~

I listed this as used since I made it a while back. 15 1/2" High x 15 1/2" Wide x 4" Deep. I made this back around 2005/2006. I like making themed shadowboxes with 1" to 1' scale miniatures & other assorted items. The contents of this 'store' were collected over a number of years from items purchased off & also at flea markets & yard sales. Some of the items originally were parts of jewelry sets or earrings. A number of the 'Gold' Tombs, Pharaoh Chairs & Bast the Cat statues I believe are from a Franklin Mint Collection of Miniature Egyptian Replicas made celebrating some of Egypt's Archaeology Discoveries & Artifacts that show at the Anthropology & Archaeology Museums. This was a fun themed shadowbox to make. It took quite a bit of planning out ahead of time as well as time to assemble. It is a one of a kind item & I doubt I could ever exactly replicate it or want to. I put an electric light inside it in the corner along with a switch that hangs outside the box. The back is also on hinges (and screwed closed) so it can open to change the bulb if it were to burn out although I have not used the bulb much to light it. It does currently light & if it were to burn out or anything were to dislodge from it's place it can be changed or put back into place. There is a mirror above the light so when the light is lit you can sometimes see a lightbeam (you can see it in the pictures) that beams down upon the Sarcophagus. Lots of 14K & 24K Gold in this item, whether purchased as was or from one of my favorite artistic tools (24K Gold Spray Paint). Feel free to email with any questions.
