Vintage 14k Gold 7 Chariots Cameo Bracelet

Jewelry : Antique : Fine : Cameos

 

This is a very nice vintage 14k gold carved shell cameo bracelet. There are 7 carved cameos. I believe these are called agate shell. Each cameo has a unique chariot scene. The first cameo has two Romans pulling the chariot with a lady rider, the second has two horses pulling the chariot with a standing figure, the third has two roosters pulling the chariot with a sitting person, the fourth has two birds pulling the chariot with a whipping rider, the fifth has 4 birds pulling a standing rider, the 6th cameo has a snake like creature pulling a rider with a flag, and the last one has 4 hourses pulling a squatting rider. Each of them look Roman in style. Each cameo measures 1 inch long by 3/4 of an inch wide, is set in a 14k gold bezel, and has good constrast in color (which is very pleasing to the eye). The total length of the bracelet when closed measures 7 3/4 inches long. The main clasp is marked 14k on the tongue and the bracelet has an extra security clasp on the side of the main clasp. It is in very good to excellent condition with no chips or cracks.
