An Egyptian Revival silver and enamel charm or pendant. Circa 1920s. The charm is formed as an Egyptian mummy and is decorated with blue, red, green, white and grey enamel. Hieroglyphics in blue enamel decorate the front and back. Egyptian themes such as this were very popular following the discovery of King Tutankhamen's tomb in 1922. A fine example in very good condition with only very minor loss to the enamel decoration. It measures 2 inches in length (not including the jump ring).
