what beautiful pieces you picked.
The blacksmith's work is truly outstanding and the magical significance of the pieces of jewellery gives it even more fascination. Thank you for this beautiful article, I have read it with pleasure. Have you ever held one of the artifacts or something like that in your hands?
I liked the Bracelet of Tutankhamun best.
At the very beginning in your article, I think the link under the headline "amulets" for "mummification" is missing.
Great that you were inspired by @pawos.
Thank you so much for your nice reply. Yes I held such stuff often in my hands. I remember even one of such wsh-collars with ends made as falcon-heads from fayence ( a special blue ceramic). It was amazing. But can you imagine how difficult it is, to restore such a collar? (The beads are mosten found without the ropes and you pick up the single beads from the tomb! :D )
Unfortunately I cannot give you a picture of this objects since they are not published yet. But here is another, comparable example, with falcon heads from gold:

That is a pretty impressive peace!
I like it a lot. Thanks for showing.
And yes, I cannot imagine to put all the little bits together - but wait! I can:) It reminds me on my origami obsession couple of years ago when I folded tiny paper peaces into a certain shape and then stacked them together so a 3D-form came up. I tried a dragon but failed after I got to impatient within the process because the thing always fell apart. But of course I did not dig in a tomb and had to find the parts first:)
