The winged scarab was seen by ancient Egyptians as an earthly symbol of the heavenly cycle of rebirth and self-creation. The scarab is modeled upon the Scarabaeidae family dung beetle, which rolls dung into a ball for the purposes of eating and laying eggs that are later transformed into larva. This necklace is handcrafted with precision and adorned with coral, lapis lazuli, turquoise, and orange carnelian precious stones beaded and outlined with gold to give a magnificent finishing look.
