    Some Etruscan Revival influence too, I'd say. Archeological Revival gets them both, but not from the original revival of these designs in the second half of the 19th.

    At first I thought the construction looked '60s, '70s. Looking again it does seem inline with thirties stuff. Sort of hard to imagine someone wearing such post war.

    First thought would have guessed 60s/70s. Those goldtone multi dangle necklaces (sort of Egyptian Revival) were a thing then. I wouldn't rule 60s/70s out. But it is a little unusual, can't put my finger on it. Not having it in the hand, I think I'd say to look at the construction, weight, etc. An earlier piece would be better made.

    Egyptian Revival took off all over again after the Tut Tour. Not that it ever really went away. That looks 70s with that matte.

    I agree, 70s, or even later.
    Could be me, but I am not seeing Egyptian Revival in any of the designs.

    That's what I was thinking too. It looks like something from the 70s or 80s.

    Maybe more Gypsy than Egyptian. That was a look in the earlier 70s.

    Love Archaeological Revival. That’s a new term for me and works for so much “sorta” stuff.
