egyptian revival scarab bracelet and brooch

Can anyone project an approx. date on this gorgeous Egyptian revival copper scarab bracelet and brooch set? (NOT marked!) and I am not certain as to the scarab material! but it's NOT faience! see photos! Thank you!

 

1970s to coincide with the Tut exhibitions. Might be Renoir.

 

Any marks on the bracelet?
Looks like what Renoir was doing in the 1960s.

Could also be a better line of souvenir jewelry 1970ish.

 

thanx cluttered......! couldn't see a single solitary mark!

 

thanx owned.....!

 

King Tut was in the US late 1970s.
Owned could be right about that.
Souvenir of the show.

Adding:
Just looked at the leaf though. Does that correspond to King Tut?

 

with all the rehash of Egyptian theory nowadays, who knows!

 

Jewellery designers are not noted for archaeological or botanical accuracy.

 

If you cast a "live" orchid it is very close.

 

Scarabs look like glass to me. There was a smaller Tut exhibition that traveled in the US in the 60s. The bigger one started at the Met in 1976. However, the design of these pieces doesn't look particularly Egyptian to me, Revival or museum reproduction. I would have put them to the 1950s - early 1960s.

 

Yes, the RISIS orchids are good, but they weren't designed by a human!

 

thanx bronwen!

 

I see what I wrote lazily is ambiguous. I wouldn't consider the design to be Egyptian at all: not Revival; not a reproduction, scarabs notwithstanding.

I know my dating is influenced by the memory of a copper bracelet my mother had, chain with a dangle that had a maple leaf on it, from the 50s. This set is giving me the same feel.
