Egyptian Revival jewelry featuring micromosaics became popular in the 19th century, inspired by the fascination with ancient Egypt following major archaeological discoveries. These pieces often depict Egyptian symbols, gods, and motifs, intricately crafted using tiny glass tesserae to create detailed mosaics. The combination of Egyptian iconography and the delicate art of micromosaics made these pieces highly sought after during the Victorian era, reflecting both artistic skill and cultural trends of the time.
