What is the name and material of the shawl-like jewelry of the upper body of the nobility in ancient Egyptian murals?
You should be talking about shawls, collars and brooches, which are common decorations of ancient Egyptian nobles. The prince and princess wear a "chest towel", which is a rectangular decorative board for decorating their chests. It is carved with colorful decorative patterns, combined with hieroglyphics, plants and royal symbols made of various materials. Neck ornaments are one of the important decorations of ancient Egyptians. They are made of gems arranged in strings, or made of colored glaze, pottery pieces and porcelain pieces.

Egypt is rich in gold, and silver is much rarer than gold. The ancient Egyptians mastered the superb gold processing technology very early. Gold is mined in the eastern desert and Nubia to decorate the heads, necks and arms of Pharaoh and his courtiers. The jewelers in Pharaoh's period didn't realize the value of precious stones, so they used a lot of secondary precious stones, such as feldspar, jade, turquoise, purple and chalcedony, to process exquisite ornaments. On the shores of the Red Sea, people also collect mother-of-pearl and shells as decorations.
