Regular price
$230.40
Presented is a nice 10K gold carved shell cameo pin. The cameo is well carved to depict a lovely young woman in classical attire with clusters of grapes and leaves in her hair. The cameo is bezel set in a 10K gold mounting with elegant engraving around the sides. The cameo was likely carved in Italy, while the gold setting was undoubtedly added in America. Made in the first half of the 1900s.
The pin is marked 10K on the clasp. We have tested it with nitric acid and guarantee it to be 10K gold.
The condition is excellent. There are no chips, no cracks, no splits, no breaks, and no repairs.
The cameo pin measures 1 1/8 inches by 1 1/2 inches.
The weight is 6.6 grams.
