Victorian 15ct Gold Turquoise Scarab Beetle Stick Pin


A delightful Victorian stick pin featuring a carved turquoise scarab beetle set in a yellow gold frame and mounted on a rose gold barley twist pin.


The turquoise beetle displays shades of green with a wonderful natural matrix. This stick pin is in a very good antique condition.


The scarab beetle, particularly in ancient Egyptian culture, symbolizes regeneration, transformation, and protection. The beetle’s life cycle, particularly its habit of rolling dung balls, was associated with the sun god Ra, representing the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Scarabs were often used as amulets and burial items, believed to provide protection in the afterlife and ensure a safe passage. They embody the idea of renewal and the eternal nature of the soul.
