An Ancient Egyptian restrung necklace consisting of faience beads in unusual colours of red and turquoise. Red tubular beads alternate with small, flattened discs in turquoise faience. Towards the centre of the necklace is a net design composed of triangles formed from tubular and disc-shaped beads of the same colours. The necklace is finished with a modern 9ct gold clasp.
Jewellery was highly important throughout all of Ancient Egyptian history, worn across social classes, and by both women and men. Bright colours and patterns were exceedingly popular, as were bold, large pieces. Beaded necklaces were especially common. These necklaces were often made from beads of all different colours, sizes, and materials, arranged artfully to create an eye-catching piece.
Measurements: 21.8cm half length when folded
Provenance: Ex H.W. private collection, UK. Previously with John Moor gallery, 1990's.
