Bracelet with barrel beads

Third Intermediate Period

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 126

Almost identical to one of the bracelets found around Henettawy’s right wrist (25.3.190c), this length of 2-ply linen cord was knotted fifteen times at regular intervals and strung with four carnelian and three gold barrel beads, then tied with a larger knot around her left wrist.
