Egyptian Revival Carved Citrine Peridot Pharaoh King Tut Brooch Pin Art Deco

About the Item

This is a rare Art Deco Egyptian Revival Citrine and Peridot Pharaoh Brooch Pin masterpiece. The museum quality brooch is centered by a magnificent hand carved Citrine with the head of a Pharaoh, or King Tut. The extraordinary carved Citrine gem reflects the work of a master artisan with exquisitely carved details in the natural mined gem. The Pharaoh is flanked on either side by two gorgeous faceted pear shape citrines. Four circular cut faceted fine green Peridot gems surround the face of the Pharaoh. The gems are set in silver. The brooch dates to the Art Deco period, circa 1890-1920. For centuries, Ancient Egypt has held the fascination of the public and continues to inspire artists and designers alike. With the discoveries of Egyptian tombs, and the treasures within, in the 19th and early 20th centuries, the exotically opulent lives of the Pharaohs were beyond anyone’s imagination. Of all the precious objects unearthed in the tombs, the lavish jewels were perhaps the most fascinating for their extravagance and never-before-seen symbolism. The Roaring Twenties and the period’s Art Deco jewelry embraced the vivid contrasting colors, motifs, and symbols more daringly than ever before. Whether the jewels were complete, faithful reproductions or real artifacts preciously decorated in similar style, the Egyptian Revival jewelry during the Art Deco era is the most lavish and magnificent. The brooch is 2 3/8 inches (6 cm) wide and is 1 1/4 inches (32mm) tall. The pharaoh citrine is 25mm tall and 20mm wide. The peridot gems are 5mm in diameter. The brooch is Silver. The brooch weighs 21.3 grams.

Egyptian Revival Plique A Jour Enamel Winged Scarab Insect Brooch Pin Art Deco
Located in New York, NY
A rare Art Deco Egyptian Revival masterpiece of a Winged Scarab Insect Brooch done in Plique a Jour Enamel over Silver. The Museum Quality brooch depicts a winged Scarab beetle, one of the signature motifs of the Egyptian Revival movement. The brooch is done with extraordinary Purple and Green iridescent Plique a Jour Enamel. Plique Enamel requires the skills of a master artisan to create. When finished, the Plique enamel creates a see through enamel which allows light to shine through, reminiscent of a stained glass window. This brooch is a masterpiece of the technique and one of the most beautiful pieces we have seen. The brooch pin is Silver with a gold wash. It dates to the Art Nouveau to Art Deco period, circa 1880-1920. It has its early C-clasp. The brooch could be easily converted to a pendant necklace if desired. Plique-à-jour (French for "letting in daylight") is a vitreous enameling technique where the enamel is applied in cells, similar to cloisonné, but with no backing in the final product, so light can shine through the transparent or translucent enamel. It is in effect a miniature version of stained-glass and is considered very challenging technically: high time...
