Jewelry from 3000 BC Egypt to the 21st Century
Egypt The use of gold jewelry can be dated back to Egypt 3000
BC. Gold was the preferred metal for jewelry making during
ancient times.
It was rare, it was easy to work with, and it never tarnished.
Magnificent bracelets, pendants, necklaces, rings, armlets,
earrings, collars, and head ornaments were all produced in
ancient Egypt, the land of the Pharaohs.
