Best Answer

In the very beginning Egyptian jewelry was made with plant branches, shells, beads, flax and cow hair. After the era of the first dynasty the Egyptians started making jewelry from glass, solid semi precious stones, gold and silver. Because of regular missions to the Easter Desert and Nubia during the new kingdom, gold, agate and silver were the most used materials.
