On offer is a large antique cameo brooch, beautifully hand carved with a classical profile portrait of a lady and set within an ornate yellow and white metal mount. Cameo jewellery became highly fashionable during the Victorian and Edwardian periods, admired for the skill involved in carving detailed portraits from shell or hardstone.

This antique cameo brooch displays excellent detail throughout the carving, from the flowing hair to the elegant draped clothing. The mount has been acid tested and while the yellow metal leaves a good scratch and stain, there is also a green reaction in the acid, therefore the piece is sold simply as yellow and white metal with no guarantee of gold content.

The brooch measures approximately 50mm in size. Condition is good antique condition with no damage to the cameo carving itself. Please note the original rolling clasp is missing its roller section and now functions as a traditional C clasp only.

A fine and highly collectible antique cameo brooch with timeless elegance and strong period character.
