Really enjoyed the Ancient Egypt exhibit at the National Museum of Scotland today - loved this coffin in particular. It’s sad to think we’ll likely never know her real name. Hopefully she’s enjoying the afterlife anyway.

Hidden in plain sight …

Gold spray brooch of three enamelled flowers. The floral spray incorporates a tiny miniature portrait of King Charles I, set under a flat crystal at the centre of an enamelled rose. It is a fine example of trembler jewellery, which allows the flowers to move, or “tremble”, imitating the movement of natural flowers. c. 1650.
