Egyptian Revival 664 BC Blue Faience Triad of Gods Pendant in 18kt Yellow Gold

About the Item

An Egyptian revival pendant with Egypt blue faience. Beautiful amulet piece from the ancient Egypt, mounted in a squared frame crafted in solid yellow gold of 18 karats with high polished finish. Fitted on top with a movable link to wear in a cold chain. Triad Of Gods amulet This Egyptian antiquity is a Osirian Triad Amulet of three Gods in vivid blue glazed faience, 5th-mid 3rd century BCE, from the late Period-early Ptolemaic, ancient Egypt and Nubia. Shows the gods Harpokrates, Isis and Neith. Isis and Nephthys flanking Horus as a child, Harpokrates. Isis, the mother of Horus, and her sister Nephthys, protected Horus from his uncle Set, who sought to kill him. Pendants with representations of single gods or groups of deities were popular in the 1st millennium BC. This triad displays the juvenile god Harpocrates in the center, depicted as a nude boy with a side-lock and uraeus-serpent above his forehead. To his right his mother Isis is depicted and to his left is Nephthys. The two goddesses have the hieroglyphic signs which represent their names as crowns on their heads; for Isis it is the throne, and for Nephthys the combination of a temple with a basket. The three figures are formed half in the round; they have a rectangular backplate and base. The relationship between these three deities is an important part of the Osiris and Horus myth. Both female goddesses protect the juvenile god of kingship, Horus, against the attacks of his powerful uncle Seth, the god of the wild and uncontrolled nature, who tries to gain control of the universe. They were thus seen as protectors of the mummy, and these small triad amulets were placed on the lower torso of the mummy between the wrappings. The intimate gesture of holding Horus’ hands not only alludes to his young age, but it also symbolizes the goddesses’ care and protection for him. This amulet is probably supposed to guarantee the same kind of protection and help of the sister goddesses for the reborn deceased that they provided for both Osiris and the young Horus. Faience is a quartz-based glazed ceramic with which the ancient egyptians were highly adept at working. It was likely formed by first pressing the mixture of crushed sand with quartz into a mold, which was then heated to fuse all together. After being removed from the mold and allowed to harden, the final details, include the individual hieroglyphs and the facial features of the ushabti, were refined carefully carved, before the final firing and the glazing. History Between the 1860 and 1890, ancient cities were discovered, such as Troy, Pompeii and Alexandria. Archaeological excavations in Egypt, Greece and Rome, discovered artistic pieces of these ancient cultures. These fabulous discoveries, stimulated cultural trips to these countries, popularly called "grand tour". Being the case that the enthusiast visitors bring back small objects, like souvenirs to be assembled into jewelry. The starting point of these trips were in the cities of Rome and Venice. this is why the craftsman's of these cities created small and interesting objects with ancient characteristics like this piece. In addition with the discovery of King Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922, "Egyptian Revival" souvenirs became incredibly popular in the Western world. Revival jewelry The styles from the renaissance and middle ages, begun in the 1850’s, The Renaissance and Egyptian revivals were joined by a classical revival of Greek and Etruscan styles to conform a new aesthetic. As a result of the construction work on the Suez canal in the mid-1860’s and the Egyptian excavations of Auguste Mariette and the resultant exhibit of Egyptian treasures at the exposition Universelle in 1867, a fascination for all things Egyptian and ancient cultures developed.

Egyptian Revival Brown Faience Scarab Pendant with 14K Gold Mount

Located in Venice, CA

During the early 19th century, the discoveries of ancient archaeological finds influenced and introduced what is referred to as "Egyptian Revival Jewelry." The first Egyptian Revival period began around the 1820’s, inspired by the unearthing of ancient Egyptian ruins during that time. Images such as the scarab beetle, sphinxes, pharaohs, and hieroglyphics became popular motifs in fashion. Pieces were often crafted using a material known as Egyptian Paste or "faience", which is the oldest form of non-clay glazed ceramic and usually found in a range of blue and green colors. In the 1920’s, there was another unearthing of treasures, making the trend popular once again. This scarab pendant is from that era—the third Egyptian Revival period. The scarab is a brown colored faience bead with tan overtones in its recesses that delineate the shape of the beetle. There are hieroglyphics on the back of the scarab. At the bottom of the scarab is a round 14k gold ball that extends as a wire through the bead and forms a bale at the top. The pendant measures 1 “ from the bottom of the ball to the top of the bale. The scarab measures 11/16” x 1/2”. The bale measures 5 mm. The piece weighs 2.55 grams. The gold is unmarked and acid tests as 14k. The scarab is in excellent condition for its age and is ready to hang on a chain of your choice. We have other sizes and colors of scarab jewelry...
