A striking Egyptian Revival brooch (circa 1900), centered with a carved turquoise scarab and flanked by two wadjet serpents, crafted in solid 14k gold. The serpents, symbolic of divine protection, surround the scarab, while two old European-cut diamonds add subtle brilliance, enhancing the depth and visual balance of the piece. Weighing 8.85 grams, this brooch offers a satisfying presence while remaining wearable.
In ancient Egyptian culture, scarabs represented rebirth, protection, and the eternal cycle of life—meanings that were especially popular during the Egyptian Revival movement, which was fueled by widespread fascination with ancient Egypt in Europe and America at the turn of the 20th century. The turquoise scarab takes center stage, beautifully carved and set in rich, textured goldwork that complements the dynamic symbolism of the piece.
The gold has been professionally verified using XRF (X-ray fluorescence) analysis and confirmed through traditional jeweler’s acid testing, authenticating its 14k composition. In excellent antique condition, this brooch is a superb example of turn-of-the-century Egyptian Revival jewelry, combining historical motifs, fine goldwork, and the radiant beauty of diamonds for a striking effect. Ideal for collectors who appreciate jewelry with vibrant symbolism and timeless craftsmanship.

Interesting and entertaining

We had another book on New York of these series and wanted to get this book for my daughter who is 9 years old. Along with her I found the language of this book interesting and entertaining. Have already visited couple of places mentioned in it.

a great guide to DC treasures
Format: Flexibound
This is not a guide book in terms of giving you directions and hours of operation, but it would be a wonderful first step in planning a memorable trip to the nation's capitol.
Nineteen themed trails are given, seven in and around the Mall, six nearby, two across the Potomac and two farther afield. Themes include animals (Rock Creek Park, National Zoo, the George Washington University hippo (statue), the National Museum of Natural History, Owney the stuffed dog at the National Postal Museum, Oxon Hill Farm, Kingman Island and the Franciscan Monastery and National Cathedral -- and a blurb about presidential pets), statuary, music, food, horticulture, power, sports, ghosts, architecture, literature, transportation etc.
As you can tell these aren't walking tours. Instead each theme gets four pages filled with photos, drawings, fun facts and information about festivals, artifacts, history and spectacle.
I try to get to WDC once or twice a year, yet I still found plenty of interesting ideas for further exploration.
If you are planning a visit (with or without kids),this would be agreat way to help them choose a few things they'd like to see. Information is presented in a friendly way but is not dumbed down.
There is an adequate, if incomplete, index. It would be useful to have a calendar of all the events listed too.
