"Souvenir" Cameo Bracelet - Italian/Portuguese - set in 800 German Silver

This is an unusual bracelet, from Italy, with six cameos, each depicting a Roman "battle" scene. Each cameo measures 20 MM x 15 MM, bezel included; 160 MM is the length of the bracelet (or 7 inches), clasp not included. See the safety chain, also. Eight tiny marcasites surround each oval cameo.

These souvenir bracelet, other jewelry items, were cheaply purchased and brought back from, in this case, Italy, in this era, much as today we purchase a a little, inexpensive charm, reminder of our journey.

The piece is in excellent condition. It is hand-carved from shell. On the clasp, it is stamped "800"; see last picture - where you can see the "800" hallmark. Close-ups indicate the detail of the cameos. Back view shows the four grommets, securing each cameo to its bezel.

Total weight is 13.4 grams, or .473 ounces.
