Georgian Era Cameo Brooch/Pendant

This lovely cameo pin dates to 1830 in the Georgian era. Cameos were very popular jewelry items in the Georgian and Victorian eras and are wonderful miniature artworks. This elegant example is set into a beautifully shaped oval frame of tested gold embellished with engraving and fine rope twists. The carved hardstone cameo depicts the profile of a woman in Regency period dress and captures the finest style details of her dress and hair. Finally, this piece is adaptable to wear as a traditional brooch, pendant, or as a scarf pin with the attached short chain and long pin.
