The scarab beetle was one of the most popular amulets in ancient Egypt—the insect was associated with the sun god Re and was believed to possess powers of self-regeneration. These artful earrings reimagine a faience scarab ca. 1479–1458 B.C.) bearing a wedjat eye (a healing symbol of rebirth) on its underside in brilliant turquoise.
