Ankh
Amulets played an important part in the lives of Ancient Egyptians who believed in their protective powers. The mystical and healing properties of amulets were determined by their shape and material.They were thought to be capable of warding off evil and bringing good luck to all of those who carried them. As the hieroglyphic sign for life the Ankh symbolizes Eternal Divine Existence. As a symbol of such an imperishable and vital force, the Ankh was found throughout ancient Egypt, carved on the walls of temples and tombs.
The Angel Store invites you to experience the beauty and symmetry of the Ankh. Another angelic offering from The Angel Store.
