Description
Cameos, cameos and more cameos!  Still liquidating a large estate parcel.  Offered here is a beautifully detailed handcarved cameo brooch which is also a pendant.  The carving itself is "above average", especially the refined facial features--she's very pretty.  She's set in a thick bezel of 18k gold.
In addition, the solid 18k handmade frame cannot be overlooked! The frame is GORGEOUS, with tiny 6-petaled flowers all the way around the Florentine finish border, and EVEN THE BAIL is made with the little flowers.  The bail folds down behind when the cameo is worn as a brooch.   Upon close examination with a loupe, two of the flowers are missing one petal each.  It is not noticeable to the naked eye, but I mention it for accuracy and honesty.
(This is a shell cameo, so there's not as much weight as would be in a hardstone agate cameo).  A great deal of the 18.4 grams of total weight is in this beautiful solid 18k yellow gold frame.
I have shown this on a chain in the photos for size perspective--CHAIN IS NOT INCLUDED.
This cameo measures 2" by 1.5" (not including the bail).  It is hallmarked 750 and tests positive for 18k gold. It closes with an early locking C clasp.  It weighs a hefty 18.4 grams and is in very fine antique condition other than the two small petals missing as noted above.
