An amazing early twentieth century faience scarab beetle Pendant giving final accent to a beaded necklace. The beads of the necklace are Genuine Mummy Burial ceramic pieces made with the technique of faience. Faience is a glazed Egyptian paste in use 5 millenniums ago. The scarab pendant looks in excellent condition. The beads are delicate and some of them are with dents. They are fragile but wearable if you keep in mind the already condition and age of them. The necklace is in a good Antique Condition.
A stunningly unique necklace with lot of history to talk about. A true collectible. There was a huge surge of interest in all things Egyptian in the early twentieth century specially because the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922. Such a jewel may have likely been a souvenir from travels to Egypt. The scarab beetle was a significant Egyptian symbol of constant rebirth and eternal life.
In ancient Egyptian religion, the sun god Ra is seen to roll across the sky each day, transforming bodies and souls. Beetles of the Scarabaeidae family (dung beetle) roll dung into a ball as food and as a brood chamber in which to lay eggs; this way, the larvae hatch and are immediately surrounded by food. For these reasons the scarab was seen as a symbol of this heavenly cycle and of the idea of rebirth or regeneration. The Egyptian god Khepri, Ra as the rising sun, was often depicted as a scarab beetle or as a scarab beetle-headed man. The ancient Egyptians believed that Khepri renewed the sun every day before rolling it above the horizon, then carried it through the other world after sunset, only to renew it, again, the next day.
