This hand-carved carnelian scarab is framed in a refined twisted wire bezel of 18 karat yellow gold, a detail that accentuates both the craftsmanship and the ancient symbolism it carries. In Egyptian culture, the scarab was revered as a symbol of rebirth and transformation, believed to protect the wearer and guide them through life’s transitions. The fiery tones of carnelian were equally meaningful—associated with vitality, courage, and grounding energy—making this gemstone a powerful complement to the scarab’s protective qualities.
