SOLDSOLD Elusive 14K WG Greek Goddess Nike Shell Cameo Brooch Pendant
Jewelry:Antique:Fine:Edwardian:Cameo:Shell:Mythology:Goddess:Brooch:Pendant:14k White Gold
More often depicted in scene cameos, the goddess Nike has an allure all of her own, but this on-the-go gal happens to be a goddess whose cameo depictions I personally pursue madly. This is a lovely carnelian shell carving set in an early 14K white gold frame of the Greek goddess Nike, winged goddess of victory. Her Roman counterpart is the goddess, Victoria. A temple to Nike still remains on the Acropolis in Athens. The carving is a "modern" style popular around 1910 and we estimate the setting ...
