Yep, you read the title right, a new line of auto-mummification caskets are being released by a Versailles Casket.
The process in Ancient Egypt that kept bodies conserved as what we call ?mummies,? has been recreated by Versailles Casket and they are the first and only company that can do this in the world.
This 16ga auto-mummification casket line is appropriately titled the ?Legend of the Pharaoh.? It is named after the beliefs of the Egyptians that their Pharaoh deserved the best of the best.
The use of high technology by in-house scientists and workers has helped make this amazing process possible. With body conservation being studied and researched, an extraordinary formula has now been found that can keep a body in perfect condition for years. While it is still impossible to preserve a body forever, Auto? Mummification keeps it from deteriorating for a vast amount of time by using a thick coat of ?special calcareous chemistry? at the bottom of the caskets to absorb the humidity and body acidity.
In Ancient Egyptian times, gold, beautiful stones, and various other riches were plentiful. Legend of the Pharoah follows the ideals of this highly sophisticated society with eight layers that are made of 24 Karat gold, with polishing between each layer, being adorned with Macassar Ebony Wood in a rich dark color. After being closed, the casket cannot be open thanks to the Double Lock System. Only the family that holds the treasure box with the 24kt gold keys will able to unlock it.
These caskets are available in various colors and interiors and pricing can be seen here for those interested in providing this special gift to loved ones.
