Gift box with book and scarf

This lovely gift box contains a beautifully illustrated book and a luxurious silk scarf, on the theme of either Ancient Egypt, the Classical world, or the Medieval period.

Ancient Egypt gift set: Masterpieces of Ancient Egypt highlights 5000 years of art and civilization in Ancient Egypt, displaying over 170 of the most important objects from the British Museum's famous collection of Egyptian antiquities. The Rosetta Stone is one of the most iconic items within this collection, and some of the text and hieroglyphs are beautifully captured on this fine silk scarf.

Classical gift set: Masterpieces of Classical Art is a richly illustrated book, showcasing a magnificent range of Classical art, from pre-historic Greece to the Roman empire, through the collections of the British Museum. The Portland Vase is the most famous cameo-glass vessel from antiquity. Probably from Rome, it dates back to AD 5-25. Scenes from this outstanding object in the British Museum are shown on this deep blue silk scarf.

Medieval gift set: Masterpieces of Medieval Art is a treasury of inspiring and significant works of art created over 700 years by medieval craftsmen across Europe, with focus on 150 of the most important objects from the British Museum's collection. The Royal Gold Cup is made from solid gold and decorated with translucent enamels which depict scenes of the martyrdom of St. Agnes and have been translated onto the bright silk scarf included here.
