Mummy dearest


So, it's rare I get ecstatically excited about a piece of vintage, and even rarer when I see a piece and say 'Oh Holy Sh*t!', because I basically just don't swear. There's so many other particularly expressive words out there.  Anyway, I did swear when I saw this Art Deco Egyptian Revival locket, and then snaffled it quick smart from The Deeps - such a good store.

For a girl who wore an ankh everyday of high school and delights in scarab beetle earrings, I couldn't pass this one up.  I mean, hello, it has a tiny mummy inside!

  1. The 3rd grader in me just wet her pants with excitement. I was obsessed with ancient Egypt as a kid (I have a t-shirt with my name in hieroglyphics, which was my most cherished item for many years). And three cheers for The Deeps . . . one of my favorite, favorite shops.
