Egyptian Revival GIA Jade Bracelet

About the Item

We are thrilled to offer this Egyptian Revival Jade Eternity Bracelet, from our Beverly Hills Estate Collection. Jade is one of the most treasured Gemstones of ancient Egypt & ancient China, as well as the rarest of all Gemstones, considered the world’s most expensive Gemstone in the finest Imperial Green shade. The British became fascinated with Egyptian styling after the 1798 battle of the Nile. The British & Germans were the most prominent consumers of Egyptian Revival jewelry pieces at this time, as well as designers. Egyptian Revival became popular in England originally in the 1860s [after its initial peak in the 1830s] after the prince of Wales visited Egypt, as well as when British took rule of Egypt in the 1880s. Another resurgence of the Egyptian revival era came along at the start of the Victorian era (1880s) .. [this particular Chinese bracelet encapsulates the Victorian Egyptian Revival period] .. Demand for Egyptian designs rose once more in the 1920s after discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb, spreading Egyptian symbolism throughout the western world. Cartier followed with Egyptian style inspirations as early as 1910 into the 1930s. This bracelet is certainly the epitome of Egyptian Revival period, perfected in the 1920s. What makes this bracelet even more unique is the continuous eternity design – with Bezel set triangular shaped pieces of Natural G.I.A. Certified Jade each encased in a Pyramid design with both Hand Repoussé & Hand-Tooled Engraving in an Egyptian Motif. Electronically-tested 800+ silver purity. *At merely a fraction of an Egyptian Revival Cartier piece with this quality of Jade.. An incredibly rare opportunity to possess a coveted piece from the Egyptian Revival era. In immaculate condition considering the age, with all original period pieces of Jade. Fitting up to a 6.5" wrist comfortably. Stamped "CHINA SILVER" inside. We offer an impeccable presentation, as well as detailed gift-wrap of your choice, with this purchase.
