Scarab Earrings

A striking pair of vintage scarab earrings crafted in 14 karat gold. Colorful and eye-catching scarab jewels such as these 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 imbued with the mystical symbolism of Egyptian-style decorative arts!

The scarab has remained one of the most recognizable motifs associated with Egyptian Revival jewelry, and examples such as these are wonderful additions to a collection of symbolic jewelry, yet classic and simple enough in design to merit everyday wear. Their compact proportions and post construction make them especially easy to wear, while the carved scarab forms give the earrings their distinctive character.
