the 1910s-1930s. The cameo is of a pretty young woman with flowers in her hair,

cameo is lovely openwork with a milgrain finish. At the four cardinal points
around the oval are hand engraved leaves in white gold. The cameo has a clasp
with a safety mechanism, as well as a retractable bail, so it can be worn as a
brooch or a pendant.
The cameo is in great condition. The clasp closes well and securely. There
are no breaks and no repairs.
The clasp of the cameo is stamped 14k. This piece has also been nitric acid
tested and is guaranteed 14k.
The cameo measures about 2 1/4 by 1 3/4 inches.
