♦ Egyptian cotton is the world's finest cotton
♦ Its softness feels like nothing else in the world
♦ Egyptian cotton is hand-picked which guarantees the highest levels of purity
♦ The strength of the fibre makes fabrics more solid and more resistant to stress
♦ Its ability to absorb liquids gives fabrics made of Egyptian cotton deeper, brighter and more resistant colours

About the mask of Tutankhamoun
The mask is now the new face of the dead king moulded in 10 kilograms of gold. The cobra and the vulture hold sway on the Nemes, his headdress. These are the royal insignia of his power over Upper and Lower Egypt. His eyebrows are made of glass paste. The eye contours made of lapis lazuli, and his pupils of obsidian. Gems are set into the chest plate; carnelian, turquoise, amazonite and faience. The king's pierced ear lobes are for earrings as is the custom for both men and woman. Lapis lazuli is set into his braided beard, the very same beard seen on Osiris, the God of the Dead.

On the back of the mask, carved in gold, are the verses of the Book of the Dead. Thoth gave him the praise of the beautiful face that is among the gods. Come before Osiris, who is watching you while you lead him through the ways of safety. You battle for him, the conspirers of Set, so that he can defeat your enemies in the sight of the nine gods.

All ornaments are removed. What is left is the body that of a sickly young man, suffering from malaria and with a deformed left foot. We can almost see him walking along the palace corridors supporting himself on a walking stick. His tomb is full of hundreds of walking sticks and has many images showing him sitting while hunting or as a woman tenderly touches his arm, her name is Ankhesenamun. She is his bride. Their love looks intense, but offspring never come to term in Ankhesenamun's womb.

Tutankhamun has no heirs and bears the stigma of Akhenaten, his father, who imposed Aten, the solar disc, as the centre of religious worship. The other gods were left aside. But for Egyptian, this drift towards a single God creed amounted to heresy. It was too dangerous for those who had built their power on the cult of other deities. At the death of Akhenaten, the throne is left to a nine-year-old boy, frail in health and maybe frail in spirit. He will lose his life after a 10 year reign, maybe killed by an accident or by sickness. His tomb is not ready, and the choice falls on a smaller one for him. His dynasty, the 18th, will not survive him for very long. The country he leaves behind is in increasing turmoil.
