Egyptian Jewelry - the Amazing Gold Work in Egyptian Jewelry
People love to wear antique jewelry in 18k pure yellow gold. Egyptian jewelry is of particular importance in this category as it is mostly made of solid gold and silver. These ancient jewelry articles include pendants, rings, earrings, and bracelets. The beauty and allure of these articles is sometimes enhanced by using lovely gemstones in various colors. Egyptian gold work comprises of filigree and engraved letters and symbols. Other shapes are also carved beautifully and expertly. These shapes include the Scarab, King Tut’s mask, stone eye of Horus, Akhenaten Ankh, Lotus Flower, and the Pyramid. Sterling silver jewelry can also be found in this category which is equally beautiful and attractive.
In ancient Egypt, soldering and welding were commonly employed to fuse different metals together. The gold work included techniques such as engraving and incised work. In addition to these, chased work was also used to create wonderful jewelry articles. Incised carving is normally used on wood to produce intricate works of art. Reverse hammering is used in repousse to decorate different metals including gold. Repousse is a French word and this technique is commonly seen in ancient Egyptian pendants and rings. Embossing and chasing are also used to create beautiful jewelry articles of the ancient style.
Sculptures and statues are popular items among ancient Egyptian jewelry. These are finished with different kinds of stone settings and marble bases. Hammering and other gold works are used to create a unique look. Repousse and chasing are still practiced in jewelry making by using modern and state-of-the-art machines. Different kinds of knives, hammers and saws were used by Egyptian artisans to produce intricate jewelry articles. The designs are still very much popular in all parts of the world. Plaster of Paris and resin materials are used to form strong settings.
The preserved Egyptian jewelry in the tombs of ancient kings shows lovely works of gold and silver. The jewelry of Tutankhamen's (or King Tut’s) time is mostly composed of gold filigree and intricate gold patterns. Colored glass and semi-precious stones like feldspar, opal, lapis, garnet and jasper were also used to enhance the elegance of these jewelry articles. The pectoral is one of the excellent examples of Egyptian gold work. In addition to this, the Scarab and Egyptian amulets are also beautiful works of art. They are still very popular across the globe and loved by stylish people and those who like to collect antiques.
Ancient Egyptian jewelry, also known as the jewelry of the dead, is amazing and incredible. One can find intricate and delicate works of art along with different gold work techniques which are still in use by modern artisans. Plain gold rings, armlets and bracelets with ancient symbols, and Bedouin earrings are examples of stunning Egyptian ornaments. In addition to these, the pectoral which was worn as a jewelry article on the chest was decorated with inlaid gold work and lovely gemstones. The jewelry of kings and queens from Egypt is undoubtedly the most beautiful and lovely example of ancient gold work.
