Reconstruction of a tomb from the eastern cemetery of Deir el-Medina excavated by Bernard Bruyère

Bernard Bruyère excavated meticulously at the site of Deir el-Medina between the years 1922 to 1951 and published his work annually. A typical middle class tomb from the early 18th dynasty received a coffin in which the mummy was placed. The belief in life after death is one of the most important features of ancient Egyptian culture. Therefore, everyday objects, and often furniture or jewelry, for example, were included in the tomb of the deceased.

These Artsocks, inspired by Reconstruction of a tomb from the eastern cemetery of Deir el-Medina show typical symbols and motifs from ancient Egyptian culture. The striking eyes stand for the Eye of Ra and the Eye of Horus. Even though they look very similar, both have different meanings. The Eye of Ra is capable of repelling all negative energy and restoring harmony, while the Eye of Horus is a strong protective symbol. The latter is associated with vision, the protection of physical integrity and health. Wear these Artsocks and feel the protection and strength of these eyes.
