Vintage 1930s Victorian Revival Carved Shell Cameo Pendant Necklace, Die-Stamped Brass Filigree
Add a touch of classic romance to your collection with this striking mid-20th-century Victorian Revival cameo pendant necklace. The pendant features a beautifully hand-carved natural shell cameo depicting a classic female profile in elegant relief.
The cameo is securely housed in an ornate, oval die-stamped brass frame boasting an openwork filigree leaf motif, rope-twist borders, and four spherical bead accents. The top and bottom are anchored by delicate metal flowers, each set with a soft faux pearl cabochon. It hangs from a substantial, matching gold-tone twisted book-chain style necklace.
Great vintage condition with beautiful structural integrity. The shell cameo is intact with crisp carving details and a lovely translucent quality. The brass setting shows an age appropriate wear.
