Egyptian collars come in lots of shapes and sizes but the most traditional colors used in ancient Egyptian times were turquoise and gold. They were made in a netting pattern and were very intricate, often using many many seeds beads and many hours of manual labour.
I recently created a couple of Egyptian collars myself on a slightly smaller scale than the average ancient Egyptian collar so that the wearer of today can wear them on a more of a day to day basis rather than just in a fancy dress costume.
The first one is made with the traditional colors of turquoise and gold and can be seen in my Etsy shop. I hope you will like it. The second one can also be seen in my Etsy shop and is made in all white. Suitable for almost any outfit but also suitable as a beautiful bridal collar.
The third I am working on and will be in black and gold.
Please feel free to contact me through my Etsy shop should you require an Egyptian collar in any colors of your choice.

Bridal Jewellery. Wedding Jewellery
Bridal jewellery is special, has to be perfect and has to be stunning and also compliment the brides outfit.
Bridal jewellery was also worn by the ancient Egyptian Bride and yes she did wear white. Very often her outfit would be covered in beaded netting, however even though the bride wore white there is no evidence that a wedding ceromony ever took place back in ancient ancient Egyptian times.
My first item of bridal jewellery had to be just perfect and something for a bride to treasure and compliment her outfit but still keeping with Egyptian inspiration in mind.
I chose some lovely cream vintage lace then went on to hand embroider seed beads individaully and carefully on to the lace. The result is as follows. I just wish I was getting married again as I would love to be the wearer of it if it was my wedding day.
I hope to create a few more pieces with the bride in mind you can view the latest bridal jewellery on my new web page.
