Bracelet in yellow gold 18K set with 6 boulder opal scarabs (three large and three small). A pearl surrounded by four peridots is set between each beetle. Each scarab is engraved on the back. The bracelet is in the Egyptian Revival style ( see article below ) Circa: 1860-1870 Wrist circumference: 21 cm At the 1867 Paris Exposition Universelle, jewelry was very well represented. In addition to ornaments in the archaeological, Renaissance and neo-Louis XVI styles, a large number of naturalist-inspired jewels were exhibited. The revival of the Egyptian style was partly due to the interest aroused by the rapidly approaching completion of the Suez Canal. The other element that played an important role in promoting Egyptian art and the Egyptian revival was the publication of August Mariette's articles on his excavations in the Nile Valley, which provided a rich source of new ideas for decorative motifs. Froment-Meurice, Mellerio and Boucheron in Paris, particularly sensitive to the influence of Pharaonic Egypt, produced a wide range of jewelry in which the preferred decorative motifs were falcons, winged scarabs and papyrus in opaque green, red and blue enamels. Collectors were particularly fond of placing vintage earthenware and hardstone scarabs at the center of gold jewelry. Source: < ; Understanding Jewellery, David Bennet & ; Daniela Mascetti > ;

Authentication &amp; Certification

Charlotte Rey and Anne Borde help individuals who ask themselves a thousand questions when selling their jewelry(s). How much is it worth on the market? Is it solid gold or gold plated? How to identify stones? And, after all, what if it came from a prestigious house?

With the jewel in hand, the founders of Castafiore determine the nature of the materials, the weight of the gold, the carats of the stones, etc. They are also looking for the trace of a hallmark, a sign of a possible renowned jeweler.

This expertise then gives rise to a digital certificate of authenticity registered in the Blockchain (GoodsID), in other words traceable and unfalsifiable; it will accompany the jewel throughout its existence, over the course of its owners.
