Large Cameo Lady in 12K Gold Frame
This Cameo is breath-taking, besides being in excellent condition. One tiny crack at the bottom (which I showed in the picture)
is the only defect. For the size and the carving of this cameo, that is really insignificant! This piece measures 2 ½” long and
2 1/8” wide. I believe this is a portrait of a Bacchante maiden, follower of Dionysus (Bacchus), god of wine and fertility, with
grape leaves in her hair and on her shoulder. She has the straight Roman nose suggesting she is an older cameo, circa late 1800’s
to early 1900’s. The carving is excellent and a tri-colored shell provides lovely contrast. The frame test as 12K gold, but there
are no markings. She really is a beauty and very hard to find at this size and in this condition!

“Fantastic”High Relief Shell Carved Cameo
Exceptionally great carving of a Lady wearing pearls or beads. The head is very Romanist, probably a figure from Mythology.
She is set in Chrome and can either be a pin or a pendant. It measures 1 ¾” by 1 ½” and the depth is a little over ½”. It has the older
European clasp. It would make a great addition to any Cameo Collection. It's a beauty.

Mother of Pearl Cameo Set
A wonderful cameo set in (supposedly) the original box. The box is marked G. Mandile, Piazza S. Martino, 8 - 10 Naples.
This must be Italian!! The pin measures 1 1/8" long and 1" wide. The frame is marked 900 and set with marcasites. This pin
has a rabbit ears safety clasp and a hinged loop for using the brooch as a necklace. The earrings have a cameo dangling
from screw backs with 800 marked on the findings. These cameo measure 7/8" long and ½" wide. They also have marcasites in
the frame setting and a twisted brass cord around the bezel. I believe these are not a demi-parure, but a wonderful marriage,
and might have been sold as a set in this box! (according to the Lady I purchased these from, these were in this box
for at least 40 yrs.) Who knows for sure???? I would circa date them 30’s or 40's.

Shell Cameo Set in Silver Necklace & Earrings
This necklace has a dainty silver box link chain adorned with three lovely carved shell
cameos. The carvings look like a woman or angel sitting on a bench holding up a ball.
The center cameo has twisted brass cording around the silver bezel and measures 7/8" long
and 6/8" wide and the other two cameos are 5/8" by ½". This necklace has no marks.
The earrings measure 6/8" by 5/8", are screw backs and are marked 800. The earrings are the
same shell coloring, but seem to have a different carving. These look like an angel sitting
on a bench holding a harp! The circa dating on these would probably be 30's or early 40's.
Although, I purchased these as a set, I believe they are a great marriage, but not a
demi-parure. I'm still going to sell them as a set!
