Antique Victorian Shell Cameo Brooch
About the Item
Victorian Cameo Brooch. Fabulous carved Victorian brooch made around the late 1800s. It depicts a beautiful Bacchante. The execution of the shell is amazing, and the relief helps to add details and dimension to the design. The carving is masterfully done in the Greek Revival style. The frame is a gold plate with embossed designs with visible signs of wear. This is a lovely cameo that will be admired for years to come!
A gorgeous vintage cameo brooch with a nice size, measuring approximately 46 mm x 39 mm. The weight is 10.5 grams.
I can assume that the clasp was changed later. There are visible traces of solder. The pin works great. The cameo itself is in excellent condition. There are obvious signs of wear on the frame.

We abide by the classics in jewelry, but the search for new ideas in jewelry design is ongoing, as well as a careful selection of stones is continually being made and carried out.
The manufacture of jewelry made from natural stones has its own subtleties associated primarily with the selection of gems. The gems in the products should be ideally matched in terms of shade, cut quality, and size. In all our jewelry items, we strive to emphasize the natural beauty of the stone, using gold and silver only as a light accent, as an organic addition to the magical internal appeal of the gem. We offer the best collection of vintage beads. Turquoise, corals, garnets, amethysts, lapis lazuli, jades, and other unique gems acquire a variety of shapes and shapes and are impeccable in their radiance and brilliance. We specialize in rare vintage clasps and simply classic antique jewelry.
Each Noblesse Oblige Studio jewelry is hand-made with love. We use solely natural materials. Every piece of our jewelry reflects a unique time and place in the collective consciousness of mankind.
