The MET X Lele Egyptian Enamel Lapis 400 Bangle

The Artifact's Inspiration: The Lapis Bangle

In ancient Egypt, lapis lazuli was considered the color of the heavens. Prized by pharaohs and royalty, this deep, celestial blue was meticulously inlaid into the most important amulets and protective jewelry of the era. Now, through an exclusive collaboration between Lele Sadoughi and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, that royal tradition is reborn. This stunning enamel bangle translates the vibrant geometry of historical Egyptian broad collars into a chic, modern bracelet designed to elevate your everyday stack.

Material & Craftsmanship (The Specs)

Engineered for effortless wear and a flawless fit, this bangle brings fine-art detailing to your wrist:

• The Canvas: A base of highly polished, 14k gold-plated brass.

• The Enamel Work: Hand-painted, glossy lapis blue enamel wraps around the exterior.

• The Motif: Features a repeating, rhythmic geometric pattern of stylized white teardrop shapes with bold red centers, echoing traditional ancient beadwork.

• The Closure: Designed with a seamless side-hinge and a secure clasp, allowing it to easily slip over the wrist without sliding off.

Curator's Styling Note

Thanks to its slim profile, this bangle is a dream for layering. Stack it alongside your favorite gold chains, or pair it with the matching "Egyptian Trio" hoops to complete the pharaonic look!
