@Citrine1 On the History channel is a series called Ancient Aliens. A lot of reputable, government and military people have
come out with a lot of information.
In Newport R.I., at some of the mansions, the ceilings are painted with lovely scenes, clouds and cherubs. the scenes are reflected in mirrors.
I could paint some sky and clouds on my ceiling for the look of an alien craft in the sky. That would be amusing.

Just stunning, @Enufstuff , and original. Love your feathers mixed with dried flowers, those variegated alabaster vases, peacock and Egyptian touches!
So subtle and interesting, and the textures and colors, and the rich beads of your tea light lamp, give a fall feeling, without "screaming fall", as you say.
That's such an interesting clock, too-- and your gilt mirror is a beauty.

@Jaspertimes Honestly, I don't remember where I got that piece.
It could have been from one of the museums in Boston, possibly when they were having a special Egyptian exhibit,
many years ago.
I have been collecting all things Egyptian since the 1980's. Some came from museum shops and catalogs. I also found things at antique shows and flea markets. At a yard sale, I even found a large Egyptian design tapestry, which is hanging in my living room. Some items were gifts, since everyone knew I loved everything Egyptian.
When Kung Tut and Ramses exhibits were here, there was a plethera of items for sale. Papyrus art and Egyptian jewelry are also in my collection.
At one time, my living room looked like an Egyptian museum. I have packed much of it away. I have'nt bought anything new, for more than 25 years.
If you are looking for something you may try Etsy and ebay
for vintage items. Or, just google Egyptian decor if you are looking for new items.
The Cleopatra piece is plaster and could be called a plaque
or a frieze. I have several books on Cleopatra, since I have always been fascinated by her.
I just looked on Etsy and there a few similar pieces; two unpainted white for $49.00 and $45.00 and a black one for $160.
There are also some more affordable colorful papyrus paintings of Cleopatra and a lot of figurines.
