1920s Czech Glass Egyptian Revival Scarab Bib Necklace

The chain links are patterned on one half and plain on the other. Each scarab is detailed on the back with tiny hieroglyphic symbols and finished with a shiny gilt brass bead. The painted details on the scarab glass beads would indicate that this necklace is most likely the work of the Neiger Brothers, masters of Czech glass jewelry, however, their work can be difficult to identify because it was never signed.
