Description

The deshret, red crown, or red one was an Egyptian crown worn in northern Egypt. The crown is a tall headress supplemented by a wire that ends in a coil, and resembles stairs or a chair when viewed from the side. The crown, combined with the hedjet, is known as the double crown or pschent.
