The ancient Egyptians believed that the god Khepri renewed the sun every day, before rolling it above the horizon, then carried it through the other world after sunset, only to renew it again on the next day. He was often depicted as a scarab-headed man, since scarabs were also seen to roll across the sun. Scarabs were often found inscribed with the names of Pharaohs and sometimes with the names of their queens and other members of the royal family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe set comes complete with black metal stands and its story printed out for you inside a beautiful envelope. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBeing handmade each piece is slightly different with natural imperfections.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eDimensions: 25 x 6,5 and heights 32,5 and 26cm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eAvailable delivery destinations and shipping options are confirmed at checkout.
