Flower jewelry has always been my weakness, and I can’t decide on a decade that I’m partial to! Flowers are such a timeless motif in art, jewelry, architecture, and so much more. 🥰
I despised art deco when I was younger but have grown to like it a ton in recent years -- nothing like the clean, bold lines and pops of sparkle in the jewelry. I did see somewhat of a revival of it given we're back in the 20's but not as much as I had hoped! I guess there's still time...!
Hi Sundae! I love Egyptian revival jewelry--all periods but especially Art Deco. I don't have much Egyptian Revival jewelry, but I did splurge on a Neiger Brothers Egyptian necklace that I found at the Portland Expo a few years back. Thank you for the giveaway!
Sweet Idea! I tend to fall for pieces that remind me of old Hollywood black and white movies, Art Deco the 1920's Flapper, especially glass beads and I've become obsessed with House of Harlow from the 1960's with all the triangle Shapes, I also have a collection of bizarre Oddities & My love for Taxco jewelry never goes away either, so I guess I'm all over the place. That's probably why my personal "for keep's" items seem so eccentric.
Hi Jen. I love looking at so many different types of jewelry. I don't necessarily favor one style over another. For me, it's more about what the piece is made from. I have a great love for all things stony, so any piece with a good stone in it works for me. I have become very attracted to post war West Germany and Japan costume, especially glass. I don't know much about jewelry in general, stones are my area of expertise, but I am learning by watching great channels like yours!
Hi Sue! The materials can make or break a piece! I love the eras you gravitate towards as well. Thank you so much for your kind words & entering the contest! Good luck ❤
Hi Jen, I've always loved deco but love so many different styles. Depends upon the piece. Since watching classic movies( 1930-1940)since I was very young I can't get enough of the jewels and fashion! Have a fantastic weekend 😊❤️
Hi Yvonne! My tastes have also evolved to include more eras - I understand what you mean by "it depends upon the piece". Thanks so much for entering & good luck! ❤
I love most Egyptian jewelry! I do have one Art Deco period scarab necklace but the majority of my Egyptian jewelry is 1960’s-70’s Egyptian revival. I did see the King Tut exhibit in Chicago in the late 70’s. A trip to Egypt is on my bucket list. I love your videos ❤
💖 Thank you Kim, good luck in the draw!! Egypt is on my bucket list as well - I am kicking myself for putting it off for so many years! I can only imagine how much excitement there was at the Chicago exhibit in the 70s! Appreciate you sharing 😘
Victorian. There is something about it that has always captured my attention the most. Thanks for doing this drawing Jen. I’m going to the opera Aida at the Met in NYC next month (it has been on my list to see for years) and realize I need to get some Egyptian revival jewelry to wear to it 😊
How wonderful, Kelleen!! I can't imagine a better way to celebrate the centennial & in a wonderful venue too! Thank you so much for entering & good luck! ❤
I loved scarabs as a kid, I still have a ton because i'd buy any i'd find whenever I went to Egypt. yes they are totally culturally ok to wear ! As for the symbolism, look into the god Khepri, as well as just the scarab symbol as a whole. it has a lot of meanings, but the most basic is a protection charm !
I am not sure if I have an established preference to any style of jewelry. I just know that I love Egyptian scarab pieces. I have my mother's scarab bracelet that was given to me before she died. As far back as I can remember she had it. I just turned 70 years old so it's quite old but in perfect shape.
Jen, This giveaway challenged me to research the different eras of Egyptian revival jewelry. I would have to say Victorian Egyptian revival jewelry period is my choice. I have been fortunate to see many Egyptian exhibitions at various museums. At the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC, I saw mummies and sarcophagus, Ramesses the Great in Memphis TN and King Tut in Fort Lauderdale FL. 🌺🌺🌺
Hi Irene - I'm thrilled to hear this inspired you to research - the Victorian period pieces are so beautiful! I've had the good fortune of seeing a few exhibits as well, and I am hooked! Thanks for entering & good luck! 💖
Thank you Jenn for this kind of fun. I love the Art Deco jewelry. I can't wait who will be the lucky winner of your beautiful scarabs bracelet. Goodluck everyone💝
Hi Jen, I love Art Deco Egyptian Revival the best. I love it when you can see a combination of both the Egyptian and the art deco style within a piece!
Thanks for this chance to win a scarab bracelet! I am a beginner to Egyptian jewelry, but in the late 60s I had a beautiful scarab watch band that I loved, but has been long lost. Thanks, again!
I think I replied to another comment instead of adding my own 😜 Anyway, I love Art Deco Egyptian revival but also pretty fond of the 1970s. My bachelors degree is in anthropology and that came about from my interest in ancient Egypt since childhood. A new King Tut exhibit is coming to my area in March 2023 and I plan to go. Also saw an exhibit that came to Dayton in the early 2000s.
Kelli, that's fascinating! I was first introduced to "Ancient Egypt" in grade 2, when my class was assigned this as a theme to celebrate the school's anniversary. I was instantly in awe. I want to hear all about the 2023 exhibit!! Thanks for entering & good luck! 💖
I’m #33 on here! I like old antique jewelry the best. I love all your stuff! Don’t enter me though cuz I already have a couple scarab bracelets I love.❤ How many does a girl need 🤷♀️.
Haha, Twitterpated Jewelry, I know what you mean. I'd say the answer is "all of them" - but they deserve to be worn! Thanks so much for watching & your comment ❤
Hi Lyn, thanks for your question. There are many ways to polish stones - from polishing pads, sand paper, and rough stones can be tumbled. From what I’ve seen it’s likely a lapidarist would first cut the stone into a cabochon to form the scarab’s shape, then polish the stone and carve it.
@@lynlong1292 if this is something you would like to have looked at, I would suggest taking it to a lapidarist and not a regular jeweller. Lapidaries specialize in stone cutting and polishing, and will able to tell you what they can do. Polishing engraved stones will remove some detail, so definitely take photos in advance so that they can recreate the original details. That said, wear is also charming in its own way! Your bracelet has no doubt been worn and enjoyed ♥️
Flower jewelry has always been my weakness, and I can’t decide on a decade that I’m partial to! Flowers are such a timeless motif in art, jewelry, architecture, and so much more. 🥰
Yes- a beloved motif spanning centuries! I'll give you a pass on selecting an era ;) Thanks for entering & good luck! ❤

I certainly hope we see more of a deco revival too!! Thank you so much for entering & good luck! ❤
