History
Adaptation of ancient jewelry became very popular in Europe in the mid 19th century. The Castellani workshop in Naples, with Henry Walters visited in 1909, was famous for this style of jewelry. Our Egyptian Revival collection, featuring real lapis cabochons and beads, is inspired by a necklace that was made in the Castellani workshop. In ancient Egypt,
Turquoise was used for centuries for it's beauty and healing powers.
