* Weight: 4 lb 3.3 refers to the Grand Krewe of Ptah, one of the Grand Krewes associated with Carnival Memphis. The Carnival tradition in Memphis dates to 1931, and many of its Krewes adopted Egyptian names and imagery in reference to ancient Memphis, Egypt. Individual Grand Krewes celebrate their own Kings, Queens, and royal courts, making this piece very likely a commemorative or presentation item associated with the 1997 Queen of the Grand Krewe of Ptah.
