Egyptian New Kingdom Cat Beaded Pendant Necklace
Size Information
Our beaded necklace embellished with a little cat pendant pays homage to the gold and carnelian effigies perched on a cuff bracelet (ca. 1479–1425 B.C.) crafted during Egypt's New Kingdom period. The cats on this extraordinary adornment The Met collection evoke the goddess Bastet, a powerful protective figure who was revered for her fertility.
