The Boehm Company, Creators of American Porcelain Art, was commissioned to recreate the actual original pieces from the "Treasures of Tutankhamun" exhibition that toured across the United States from 1976-1979. This exhibition, also known as "Treasures of King Tut" was Egypt's salute to the U.S. Bicentennial. It traveled to six major museums throughout the United States.Boehm was chosen to commemorate this event because the company was known for their quality.

The Treasures of Tutankhamun is said to be one of “the most important and beautiful exhibition of ancient Egyptian art ever to come the United States” and the fifty-five items chosen for the exhibition was meant to give an “accurate image of the contents of the four rooms of the tomb: the Antechamber, the Burial Chamber, the Treasury, and the Annex”.

Egyptian Goddess Selket was manufactured in the U.S.A. by the Boehm Porcelain studio. The commemorative and limited edition pieces were made to represent the famous collection of Egyptian antiquities found in Tutankhamun’s tomb by English archaeologist and Egyptologist, Howard Carter in 1922.
