Humans have always adored rare gems, ancient artifacts, and the vibrant mineral treasures hidden just underneath Earth’s crust. One of the most popular ways to celebrate this fascination was through Specimen jewelry, which dates back thousands of years, and experienced its peak popularity in the 19th century.
Our Curio original 18 carat gold Scarab Specimen rings pay beautiful homage to this ancient tradition. Crafted in stunning aquamarine, moonstone, and emerald, these unique adornments evoke the popular jewelry designs of the 19th century, which often included mounting amulets in spinning settings, echoing an ergonomic mounting method from the ancient jewelry world.
In addition to celebrating this thousands-year old craftspersonship, our own scarab artifacts honor the ancient practice of venerating totemic amulets. These treasures can be worn in so many ways – whether adorning your finger, dangling from a chain, clasped to an earlobe, or draped elegantly as a choker suspended by ribbons.
No matter how you choose, these scarab rings offer timeless styling options reminiscent of antiquity. Truly a wonderful addition to the connoisseur’s jewelry collection!
Available in aquamarine, moonstone or emerald. Please send us an email indicating your choice of stone.
