This stunning coaster showcases the majestic image of one of Egypt's most influential and successful rulers, whose nearly four-decade reign (circa 1390-1352 BCE) marked the absolute pinnacle of wealth, peace, artistic achievement, and diplomatic power during the New Kingdom's 18th Dynasty. Known as "The Magnificent" and "The Dazzling Aten," Amenhotep III presided over an era of unprecedented opulence, monumental construction, and international prestige.

His reign represents the zenith of Egyptian civilization, a time when Egypt's power, wealth, and cultural influence reached heights never seen before or since.
