Did you know that l'Egyptomania of the First Empire can be traced back to various travel accounts published in the early 19th century? Following the publication of V. Denon's "Voyage dans la Basse et la Haute Egypte" in 1802, women began to adorn themselves with jewelry inspired by ancient Egypt: scarabs, sphinxes and pyramids adorned ladies' toilettes.
