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.

What woman does not want to be dripping in diamonds? Antique European cut diamonds, at that, which bring back thoughts of candlelight, gas lights, and romantic carriage rides. This gorgeous Italian shell cameo offers a master carver's creation of one of the most beautiful early 1900's women we have seen in some time. Rare and unique, her expertly and intricately carved facial features, hair-do, daisies and a beautiful gown are wonderfully accented by a six diamond 14K white gold necklace. The ...
