14K Solid Gold Pharaoh's Death Mask Pendant

This item is a Pharaoh's death mask-style pendant, approximately 1.5 cm from top to bottom, made of what is described as 14k solid gold, giving it a rich, lustrous golden color. The pendant is cast in the iconic likeness of King Tutankhamun's burial mask, featuring the distinct nemes headdress with horizontal striations. The face is clearly defined, with visible details for the eyes, nose, and mouth. Notably, the eyes are set with what appear to be small, dark, round gemstones, possibly black onyx or dark sapphires, adding a striking contrast to the gold. The craftsmanship suggests a solid construction, indicative of good quality. There are no obvious signs of significant wear or damage from the visible angle, the gold maintains its polished sheen, and the stones are securely set. The bail for hanging the pendant is integrated into the top of the headdress, appearing sturdy and well-formed. Given the historical stylization, the piece likely dates from the 20th century, possibly post-1922 (discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb), and could be considered vintage. The detailed molding and clear definition of features point to a well-executed piece of jewelry.
