Info
This piece is a fine example of the revival in Egyptian influenced jewelry inspired by the 1922 discovery of King Tut's tomb. Though it is diminutive and dainty the pharaoh's stern gaze and dynamism gives it considerable presence. The locket's golden patina compliments the bright enameling that has a very modest amount of wear. The interior reveals an original frame to enclose a special photo. The shape of the locket has a plump realism that still holds in crisp detail the pharaoh's commanding portrait.
