| GM SHELL CAMEO BRACELET | ||||
|
  |
|||
Fabulous vintage bracelet featuring 8 hand-carved shell
cameos, each slightly different. The bracelet is 7" long by 3/4"
wide and the setting appears to be 800 silver (unmarked). The clasp
is marked GM. Some age to the metal but overall condition is very
good.

| 10K WHITE GOLD, SEED PEARL & ONXY PIN | |||
 |
Elegant 10 karat white gold Edwardian line pin, circa 1910.
The brooch is equipped with a 'locking c-clasp' and is marked S 10K.
The center motif is black onyx around a seed pearl. Excellent condition.

| SIGNED BOOK PIECE - ITALIAN CAMEO SET | ||||
|
The necklace in this fabulous Victorian Italian silver and shell
cameo demi parure is featured on the inside cover and again on page 148
of Fred Rezazadeh's book, Collectible Silver Jewelry.
Absolutely wonderful necklace and bracelet set, made of Italian filigree silver, shell cameos and unfoiled aquamarine colored stones. The necklace is 21-1/2" long with a focal area that extends 5-1/2" across and drops 1-1/2" at the center. A disk near the clasp is marked 925 Italy and a mark that looks like CA, with a symbol between the letters. Oddly, the matching 6-1/2" bracelet is marked GM on the clasp. The bracelet is about 1-1/8" wide at the center. Considering the age of this fabulous late Victorian set, overall condition is excellent.

| 1860s GARNET & GOLD HAIR BROOCH | ||||
 |
 |
 |
||
Gorgeous & ornate holloware gold mourning brooch
from the America Civil War era (tests as 10K but unmarked). The brooch
is quite large (about 2-1/4" x 1-3/4"), stands almost 5/8" high, and is
equipped
with a sturdy, elongated pinstem that extends a full 5/8" from the edge
of the brooch, a c-clasp and a tubular hinge. The rectangular center
compartment features a lock of woven blond hair under glass/crystal, surrounded
by 26 seed pearls and 17 large garnets. The bezel set garnets are
a very dark red color, but not as black as they appear in my photo.
The back of the hair compartment is engraved with what appears to be a
name. This is a wonderful scrolled and engraved mid Victorian design,
in overall excellent condition.

| Signed CZECH CAMEO FESTOON | ||||
 |
 |
 |
||
What an incredibly beautiful vintage Czech necklace.
16-3/4" long, with a festooned focal area which measures about 5" x 2"
including the drop. At the center, an oval cameo is mounted on antiqued
silvertone Nouveau filigree. The beads and cameo are a rich
carnelian colored glass. Stamped Czechoslov on the o-ring.
Hook has been replaced, but condition is excellent.
|
||||
| 9K STICKPIN w/ CARNELIAN & STONE CAMEO | ||||
 |
 |
 |
||
Beautifully carved stone cameo mounted on a 10mm x 15mm
carnelian cab and bezel set in unmarked 9K gold. Overall length of
the pin is 3". The pin itself has a few bends in it, but the cameo
condition is excellent. Probably Victorian.
|
||||
| EARLY CELLULOID CAMEO | ||||
 |
Large, early celluloid cameo (1920s?) in a very rudimentary brass rope-twist setting with c-clasp. Condition, detail and relief on the 35mm round cameo is excellent but the frame has definitely seen better days. |  |

|
||||
| ORNATE CAMEO PENDANT | |||||
 |
|
||||
| LARGE GODDESS DIANA SHELL CAMEO IN 10K GOLD SETTING | |||
 |
Absolutely exquisite Goddess Diana shell cameo, beautifully carved
and very detailed. She is set high in a pronged 10 karat (marked) gold
setting which has both a pinback and a swivel hook so she can also be worn
as a pendant. Wonderful colors, excellent condition. Overall
size is 1-7/8" x 1-3/8" x 1/2" high.
