Egyptian Revival jewellery showcased.
So have decided to show some of the Egyptian revival jewellery that I collect. Originally many pieces of jewellery were produced in the first half of the twentieth century when the tombs of the pharaohs were being excavated. In the early 1970s there was another revival of vintage Egyptian jewellery, when the Tutankhamen exhibition went on tour around the world. Antique jewellery from Egypt has been around for centuries as the people adored themselves with silver, gold and precious and semi precious stones.This is a modern Egyptian revival bracelet. Nicely engraved with Egyptian themes
In 800 silver and silver plate metal.
A selection of Egyptian brooches, some vintage and some second hand. The large scarab brooch is by Exquisite made in 1972, for the Tutankhamen tour. Not marked Exquisite but Tutankhamen. The ring is also from Exquisite. Below are a selection of rings.
