About the Item

Estate Egyptian Revival royal purple amethyst bead 14K gold necklace The design of this necklace is based on Ancient Egyptian New Kingdom necklaces called Poppy Bead Necklaces, for their resemblance to the bud of the Poppy flower. Poppies were popular staples in Egyptian gardens for their bright, attractive blooms and their medicinal use. Bamboo is thought to have been used as a stone-raising tool used to build Pyramids, the long flexible poles used in concert to share the load and lift the heavy stones. For an example of an Ancient Egyptian Poppy Bead necklace, please see Metropolitan Museum of Art, Accession Number 40.9.26, on view in Gallery 117, The Met Fifth Avenue 7mm amethyst beads with 4mm amethyst accent beads, royal purple color, light natural inclusions, very well matched. Clasp with maker's mark, tested for 14K gold
