Victorian Lava Cameo in Ornate Floral Frame

Fabulous Victorian period cameo expertly carved from lava.

The carving is excellent with high relief and fine detail.

The high relief accommodates an almost full face rather than just a profile.

The woman is lovely with big eyes, full lips and fine nose, her hair is really amazing with curled tendrils and a headdress.

All of this detail is a cameo that measures .75" by .5"!

The frame is gold filled with graceful leaves and flowers, a preview of the coming early Art Nouveau style.

The frame is .25", the entire piece measures 1" by 1.25". It has the old C style catch.

The condition is excellent, there is no damage or wear. A real jewel of a hard to find lava cameo.
