Scarab Ring Egyptian Faience Sterling

This is an exceptional scarab pinky ring. It is very large and showy. The scarab is white ceramic faience and the metal is silver, marked sterling on the inside of the band. The jeweler who made this ring put a lot of effort into cutting and crafting the bezel and band. The scarab is 1.25 inches long.

Scarab Tin Egyptian British Museum

This is a steel can from the British Museum in the shape of a scarab. There is an image of a scarab on the interior too. The can is dated 1997 and is a pleasant work of art in its own right. This tin is about 4 inches long.

Scarab Selection Egyptian Faience Slate Ceramic

These are three exceptional scarabs. They can be used to create rings or pendant jewelry. For me they are simply exceptional works of art. The blue faience scarab is a full 1.25 inches long, which is large for this type scarab. The white ceramic scarab is even larger at slightly more than 1.5 inches long. It has a deep ultramarine lapis blue glaze. The dark grey scarab appears to be made of slate (or some similar dark stone) and has its markings cut into the stone; it is about 1.25 inches long.

Scarab Pendant Egyptian Gold Contemporary

This is a scarab pendant. It is a contemporary faience piece, in my opinion, as it has a stylized bit of engraving on the bottom. There is a gold paint blush on the scarab and the wire is gold plate or low grade gold, it seems. The chain appears to be gold plate as there is some blue tarnish on a section of links. I found this pendant at a tag sale and it is a piece of handmade costume jewelry in my estimation. It is very pretty and stylish. The scarab is a bit more than 1 inch long.

Scarab Paperweight Egyptian Ceramic Resin

This is a large scarab paperweight. I prefer to see it as a work of art. It appears to be a fired ceramic and has a slight ring to it when tapped. I am not entirely sure how it was made. It may have been partially cast and partially carved. At some point the scarab was broken. This may have happened during manufacturing. All of the pieces are nicely super-glued back together. Under close examination one can see the seams, otherwise the piece is quite attractive. It took a lot of work to create this piece. I think it is a contemporary, colored to have an antique patina. About 3 inches long. If this paperweight is made of a resin material, it is quite hard and crisp.

Winged Scarab Pendant Egyptian Gold Silver

This is an elaborate scarab pendant. The silver work is sterling, stamped 925, and the sun is gold, stamped 14k gold. The scarab is faience. The small stone on the bottom is tiger-eye. This is a hand wrought piece of signed jewelry. On the back an electric hand engraver was used to sign the piece, S Can or S Cain. A small © mark is stamped into the silver. This is an exciting piece of jewelry. About 2.5 inches across.
