| This 34 x 44 millimeter oval shell cameo is remarkable for several reasons, beginning with the frame. Made of 14 karat gold, it is done in intricate filigree with breathtaking hand-worked ornamentation and flourishes. The carved image seems more Elizabethan lady than ancient diety with her high collar and perfectly detailed hairstyle. The necklace she wears contains one old mine diamond. This unique cameo originates in the 1910’s and may be worn as a pin or pendant | |
