Gemstone and Gold Scarab Bracelet

Colorful and eye-catching scarab jewels such as this bracelet are terrific examples of the Egyptian revival aesthetic that has been wildly popular since the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922. Scarabs are symbols of transformation, protection, renewal and rebirth. They represent eternal life and the natural cycles of life: poignant and important symbols!

This bracelet was made in the middle of the 20th century and consists of nine carved scarabs - each encircled by a golden bezel - set in a row with a golden link between each. The gems of this bracelet are cabochon shaped with beautiful and thoughtfully carved details on both the front and reverse sides; they include: rock crystal (quartz,) banded agate, green chalcedony, amethyst, rose quartz, carnelian, bloodstone, blue chalcedony and amber scarabs. The bracelet is fashioned from 14 karat yellow gold and fastens with a spring ring style clasp.
