An 18k yellow gold (750) brooch with openwork design featuring cascading flowers, centered with a lapis lazuli scarab in the Neo-Egyptian style, set in a closed setting with three small round diamonds and featuring a cultured pearl pendant. Art Nouveau period. Length: 6.5 cm - Gross weight: 15.5 g The fascination with ancient Egypt did not escape the world of jewelry design, as exemplified by Tiffany & Co., Jules Wiese, Piel Frères, Carlo Giuliano, Marcus & Co., Cartier, and René Lalique. Characteristic of the “Egypt Revival” movement that has permeated the decorative arts since the 19th century, our brooch draws inspiration from the symbols of the land of the pharaohs: the scarab and the stylized lotus flower, as well as materials such as lapis lazuli. Here, Egyptomania blends with the modernity of Franco-Belgian Art Nouveau, characterized by its organic, “whip-like” lines. This lot is stored off-site in a bank vault and sold by designation.
