View Egyptian Revival Scarab Cuff Bracelet Silver Brass Eye Horus Turquoise 2.5" with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. The scarab beetle (Scarabaeus sacer ) served as the primary ancient symbol of solar rebirth, self-creation, and protection, while theWedjat (Eye of Horus) represented wholeness, divine healing, and royal safeguard against harm. Overview A striking statement piece of mid-century Egyptian Revival jewelry, this broad open-cuff bracelet captures the theatrical elegance of early-to-mid 20th-century archaeological revival design. Constructed from a multi-layered mixed metal chassis featuring silver-toned alloy sheet and warm brass accents, the cuff is embellished with carved turquoise-blue scarab cabochons alternating between hand-stamped hexagonal plaques depicting the  Wedjat  (Eye of Horus) with radiate solar beams. Framed by twisted rope-wire borders and finished with triangular terminal endplates, this bold wrist ornament doubles as an extraordinary wearable art accent or decorative vanity display, complete with complimentary fully insured standard shipping. Deep Cultural & Historical Background The Egyptian Revival movement swept global fashion and decorative arts following major early 20th-century archaeological discoveries, most notably the 1922 opening of King Tutankhamun's tomb. Artisans across the Mediterranean and international fashion capitals synthesized ancient Nile iconography into wearable silver and brass jewelry. The scarab beetle ( Scarabaeus sacer ) served as the primary ancient symbol of solar rebirth, self-creation, and protection, while the  Wedjat  (Eye of Horus) represented wholeness, divine healing, and royal safeguard against harm. This cuff reflects those enduring traditions through handcrafted wirework, bezel-set carved scarab stones, and layered geometric panel construction characteristic of North African regional silversmithing. Condition & Surface Character The cuff exhibits a rich, authentic vintage patina with surface oxidation, gentle silver-plate wear, and warm brass undertones exposed along high relief edges and interior folds. The carved turquoise-tone scarab cabochons remain securely seated in their wire-wrapped bezels with crisp carved detailing. Structural soldering joints and layered metal plates demonstrate authentic period artisan workbench construction, presenting age-appropriate character and minor surface toning throughout.
