Seller's description

Specifications

May include: An oval-shaped brooch featuring a white carved cameo profile of a person set against a light brown background. The cameo is encased in a textured gold-tone metal frame with a scalloped edge and a pin mechanism on the back.

Beautiful carved Shell Cameo showing a silhouette of a lovely woman with amazing details to the finely carved face and period styling of the hair.

Set in a Victorian 10K Gold setting that frames the lady with tiny flowers and etched gold.

The back holds a pin-back to use as a brooch, or a tiny, hinged loop bail to turn the brooch into a pendant to hang on a chain of your choice.

The color of the exposed Carnelian shell glows in the light.

No cracks, chips or discoloring.

Measures 1 1/4 inches high X 3/4 inches wide.

Marked inside the rim of setting, 10K Amco, a Jewelry company from the 1900's through 1970, based in Rhode Island, and collectible today.
