ABOUT THIS JEWELRY

A trio of formidable pharaohs are forever enshrined in colorful Egyptian Revival glory in this magnificent ensemble dating from the Art Deco period, circa 1925, when the discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb in 1922 popularized Egyptian imagery throughout the western world. Artfully designed and hand fabricated in 18K yellow gold, the pharaohs are hand carved in rich green chalcedony embellished with two-tone blue and green enamel dotted with small sparkling European-cut diamonds. A pair of seed pearl tassels dance below this dramatic, exotic, and extraordinary work of wearable art. The lavallière measures 5 inches, the earring s measure 2 inches.

About Art Deco Jewelry

Sleek and modern, Art Deco design brought jewelry into the machine age. Yet these stylish pieces still found room for the fine forms and lines of previous eras within their elegant architecture. In particular, we see many peaceful co-habitations of Edwardian and Art Deco styles together.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
