This ring was converted from a Mid Century multi-stone scarab bracelet, a popular souvenir, starting in the late 19th century, when the Egyptian Revival was, itself, revived after the opening of the tomb of Tutanhkamen in 1922. Egyptian themes, like the scarab, quickly became a staple of the Art Deco period. Fittingly, the scarab represents rebirth.
Made of a carved green hard stone set in 14 karat gold, with a simple 14 karat gold shank, it's a fun yet subtle jewel perfect for those who love unique items!
