Major Scarab Pendant Amethyst Opal

Uncommon Gem: 18k yellow gold orange sapphire, amethyst and opal major scarab pendant. 

According to our founder, Lauren Harwell Godfrey, “I began work on these Scarabs and then decided to take a trip to Egypt as I have long been fascinated by the ancient culture and its rich visual use of hieroglyphs and symbols. I especially love Scarabs for what they represent: rebirth and renewal. I was lucky enough to get one made in time to bring it to Egypt and take it to the pyramids and ancient sites where so many scarabs are represented in the art. My version features contrasting textures with faceted and smooth stones sourced in complementary colors. As is typical in my work there are patterns and engraving lines and lots of detail like the tiny little pyramids that define the center of the piece, set with sparkling diamonds.”
