Pair of iconic, Egyptian revival, faience, chain link bracelets. Ceramic turquoise barrels & coral glass beads are strung along w/ brass repoussed spacers. Popular since the 1920's discovery of King Tut's tomb, Egyptian jewelry pieces have been reproduced many times over. These bracelets are in our house since early 1970's when the exhibit came to Chicago's Oriental Institute Museum. A couple of cracked beads, some plating loss & patina. 7 "& 7.5" x 1.75". Lavishly excessive to have two! So apropos!

This item is sold from a vintage boutique in Chicago, IL.
