Coffins in Egyptian times were highly decorated with inscriptions and representations of gods, like Anubis, who would protect the dead person on the journey to the next world. The body would be mummified before it was placed into the wooden coffin, as it had to be preserved for it to enjoy the afterlife.

This 5.5cm tall Egyptian Coffin is made from base white metal that is antique bronze plated. It is supplied in a clear box with double-sided colour information card.
