Vintage 1930s molded glass scarab link bracelet
A 1930s molded glass scarab beetle bracelet, The public appetite for ancient Egyptian cultural symbols - particularly in costume and jewelry - was renewed with archaeological discoveries in the 1920s. This bracelet would have been absolutely "on trend" and - since the beetles are made of glass and not real organisms - affordable. Each beetle is prong set and the chain of twelve forms the whole of the bracelet. The iridescent links shimmer and the painted detail matches the brass of the bracelet. Outstanding condition.
The scarab was an important symbol to the Ancient Egyptians and scarab amulets were often tucked inside the wrappings of a mummy prior to burial. The scarab (dung beetle) symbolized resurrection, transformation, and the immortal human spirit.
