Did you know that the Egyptomania of the First Empire originated from various travel accounts published at the beginning of the 19th century? Following the publication, among others, of "Voyage dans la Basse et la Haute Egypte" by V. Denon in 1802, women adorned themselves with jewelry inspired by ancient Egypt: scarab, sphinx, and pyramids decorated the outfits of these ladies.
