Treasure of Tutankhamun. Ankh-shaped mirror box

Mirror box in the form of an ankh. The central part of the lid is carved with Tutankhamun's pre-name, Nebkheperura, written through the representation of the winged scarab resting on the symbol neb and holding the solar disc in its paws. At the bottom is a lotus flower and at the sides two cobras with solar discs. The rest of the lid is inscribed with hieroglyphics. The mirror inside was stolen by thieves in times before Carter's discovery.
