Jewelry : Antique : Cameo,Victorian,Pin,Flora,Roses

 

WOW This is a MUSEUM QUALITY CAMEO OF FLORA WITH ROSES IN HER HAIR.I almost kept her for my collection but I cannot keep them all.The setting is Pinchbeck that looks like high carat gold.At one time there was glass on the back as the cameo flips.Has the c and t pin.The size is 21/8 by 21/2.Much nicer in person.This is the type you have to hold in your hand to appreciate.The cameo is mint a little dirty but I like the shading.The back is covered in sea salt.This is a early piece 1850.One of the nicest ever.Love the coloration and how the carver left on the different layers for color.
