Egyptian Revival Mummy Pendant
Cool Egyptian Revival mummy pendant dating from the 1920s. The sarcophagus is decorated in enamel in the classic Egyptian colours - green and white, lapis blue and carnelian red - with a pale gold wash. It's hinged at the head, opening to reveal a mummy inside that's also beautifully detailed and enamelled with strips of cloth tied in bows at the back. The sarcophagus itself is, quite unusually, lined with red velvet on the inside and decorated with Horus on the front, a lotus on the back, hieroglyphs (ish) on the sides, and various geometric patterns.
The discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922 sparked a fresh wave of Egyptomania in Europe and the USA, with Egyptian themes both directly and indirectly inspiring the jewellery and fashions of the Art Deco period. Crafted in silver with a gold wash still very much present over the mummy inside.

Condition
We offer detailed and accurate condition reports on each listing. These pieces are antique, vintage, or pre-loved and often over 100 years old so they're going to have lived a life. A healthy patina and the odd scuff or scrape is quite normal... it's part of their charm! Everything we present has been checked over by our jeweller and should be good for wear for many years to come (unless otherwise stated) but please remember to treat them with appropriate care and consideration for their age.
