Today I introduce a new jewelry collection called the “Egyptian Collection” produced by Green Diamond SJD. We turn to this theme for the first time.
I and my husband like the style Art Deco and we have many art albums dedicated to this period of jewelry art and every time when I visit an auction-house Dorotheum in Vienna I pay my attention to Art Deco Jewelry.
And now I’ll tell a little, why I establish linkage between our Egyptian Collection and Art Deco style.
The Egyptian style was among the most popular jewelry designs to emerge from the Art Deco period. The discovery of King Tutankhamun's tomb by British archeologist, Dr. Howard Carter, in 1922, had sparked widespread fascination with Egyptian culture. Among specific Art Deco design motifs that were directly inspired from King Tut's tomb were blue faience (glazed ceramic) scarabs, amulets, and face masks of King Tut. ..... Egyptians used to make their fantastic jewelry, we can look to these pieces as inspiration in making beautiful jewelry today. They were also skilled at using glass beads to simulate the look of semi-precious gems. The Egyptians are sometimes credited with making the first costume jewelry ...

Today I show some items produced of Sterling Silver with imitations of coral and turquoise. They look as a genuine coral and turquoise and have the same color. But just, due to using of imitations of genuine stones it has been possible to lower prices of our collection. And the most important, now we can offer buyers the true jewelry in Egyptian Style but not a “poor” jewelry with use of semiprecious stones of very low quality which counters of shops are overfilled.
