Sacred scarab pendant necklace adorned with authentic and vibrant Lapis stone on a high-quality gold snake chain. The scarab is an ancient amulet from Egypt, believed to protect its wearer against disease and death, and was also interpreted as a symbol of resurrection. Worn as a protective talisman by both the living and the deceased, it is one of the most potent of all amulets – symbolizing the sun, protection, transformation + rebirth. Lapis is often referred to as ‘The Wisdom Stone.’ Lapis was loved by the Ancient Egyptians and was often seen in paintings and scrolls, where it’s being adorned by the Pharaohs, Queens, and Goddesses.
In ancient Egypt, Lapis lazuli was powdered and worn about the eyes to improve eyesight.
