| A miniature portrait of a hauntingly beautiful woman, in watercolor on ivory, circa 1760-1780. Her long black hair is down; she wears a décolleté gown trimmed with lace. She’s set in a 14k gold frame, originally a bracelet clasp but converted at an early date to a brooch clasp. There’s some mold on the interior of the glass, visible under magnification, and a split on the reverse near the hinge. Measures 1 ¼” by 1”. | |||||
