Egyptian Revival, I think near the end of the Art Nouveau period or perhaps in the early 20s. This may be from Levinger and Bissinger; they did many like it.

WEDGWOOD, teapot with Egyptian motifs, 1800. Egyptian style was all in the rage in the early 19th century, thanks to Nelson’s victory in the Battle of the Nile. The Wedgwood factory responded with a series of teawares that made use of ancient hieroglyphics – although at the time these were purely decorative as their meanings weren't discovered until 1822. The crocodile finial is thought to refer to a remark made by Nelson’s mistress.
An Egyptian Revival pendant/brooch, by Giacinto Melillo, 19th century. Designed as a scarab of carved lapis lazuli mounted in gold, with wings decorated with blue and white enamel, and legs holding a diamond and a pearl.
