{"product_id":"cat-beaded-earrings","title":"Cat Beaded Earrings","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eCats were considered sacred in ancient Egypt. They represented Bastet, the cat-headed goddess of Bubastis, a city in the northeastern delta of Lower Egypt. Originally linked to the sun god Re, Bastet came to be associated with the life preserving power of the sun, the protection of women, felicity and joy. Our cat is a reproduction of a faience (glazed earthenware) amulet. Cat amulets were commonly worn on necklaces during the 22nd and 23rd dynasties to invoke the blessing of Bastet. These earrings feature a pewter cat with a gold finish, blue ceramic beads, and carnelian beads. Finished with french wire backings. \u003cem\u003eMeasures 1.75 in.\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MUSEUM REPRODUCTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53149782376815,"sku":"60489","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/6368\/0098\/files\/60489.png?v=1790281453","url":"https:\/\/shop.famsf.org\/products\/cat-beaded-earrings","provider":"de Young \u0026 Legion of Honor Museum Stores","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
