Micromosaic Earrings Scarab Beetle Egyptian Revival Italy

Description: Micromosaic Earrings Scarab Beetle Egyptian Revival Gold Filled Italian Grand Tour For your consideration are these stunning Egyptian Revival antique micro mosaic scarab beetle earrings. Highly revered in ancient Egypt, the scarab was a sacred symbol of immortality, resurrection, and transformation. This means scarab beetle totem is a powerful ally for creation and metamorphosis in your life. It is a symbol of renewal and rebirth. Measures roughly 74 mm x 26 mm. There is minimal to no tesserae loss in any of the mosaics that I can detect (the tiny handmade glass tile pieces). I have added new 14K gold filled lever back hooks and two antique golden flowers, also from the Victorian era so these lovely earrings can be enjoyed today. Flowers can easily be removed if desired by the new owner. Please zoom and inspect all photos for additional details and condition. As with almost all antique micro mosaic jewelry, do not submerge in water or use chemicals to clean. A brief history of micro mosaic jewelry: Micro mosaic jewelry became popular during the European Grand Tour period (17th-19th Century). Members of wealthy families would travel around Europe taking in the sights and cultures of several different countries. Italy was a very popular tourist spot as it had a long and prestigious history in arts and culture - a favorite subject in aristocratic circles. It was also a famous glass producer, and Italian craftsmen quickly turned their glass making skills to making stunning miniature micro mosaic pictures for their rich visitors. Flowers, birds and architecture were a very popular subjects. Each piece of tesserae (little hand-pulled glass tiles) was hand cut by the artist and painstakingly set in place. No two micro mosaic pieces are the same. You are buying a little piece of history that is truly a one of a kind.
