Material: Gold, Semi-precious stones
This bracelet of Queen Ahhotep (alternatively spelled Ahhotpe or Aahhotep, meaning "Iah (the Moon) is satisfied"), which is one of a pair, was found along with other jewels inside her sarcophagus. It was given to her as a present by her son, King Ahmose the First. She was an Ancient Egyptian queen the daughter of Queen Tetisheri (known as Teti the Small) and Senakhtenre Ahmose, and was likely the sister, as well as the wife, of pharaoh Seqenenre Tao.
The bracelet is composed of 30 rows of gold beads and semiprecious stones, alternating with each other in a special design to form triangles and squares.
