    They are scarabs. What does the stamp say? It doesn’t look like it says Sterling from the photo.

    Lovely necklace, Estater.
    I'm with kyra, the stones are amazonite. Amazonite is used a lot in North Africa, which doesn't necessarily mean these amazonites were sourced there.

    Can we see the piece lying flat, oriented as it would be on the neck? Will help with dating.

    Thritto.;) It has an Arts & Crafts influence, and could even be considered Arts & Crafts with an Egyptian Revival theme.
    It is gorgeous.
