Express your natural beauty with GAIA pieces, handcrafted with care in Egypt.In ancient Egypt, the sun was not a symbol — it was a presence. Ra, the solar deity, was depicted at the centre of the Egyptian pantheon for over three thousand years, his image appearing on temple walls, royal cartouches, and personal amulets worn by those who sought his favour. The solar disc was among the most reproduced forms in Egyptian jewellery, documented extensively in the funerary and ceremonial objects recovered from the Nile Valley. — Aldred, C., Jewels of the Pharaohs, Thames & Hudson, 1971
