Reverse description Central depiction of a stylized ancient Egyptian scarab beetle rendered in vivid green and yellow enamel coloring, its body shown in full detail with outstretched wings decorated in alternating green and gold feather-like striations. A domed cabochon of green jasper is inset above the beetle's thorax, representing the solar disk traditionally held aloft by the scarabaeus. Above the scarab, a symmetrical arrangement of stylized lotus flowers and foliage fans outward in green and gold enamel. The entire composition is set against a polished silver field within a plain raised border, conveying the aesthetic of ancient Egyptian funerary amulet art.
