Art Deco Gold Filigree Cameo Habille of a Flapper
blissst on February 3, 2010 in Antique and Vintage Jewelry, Jewelry, Pinned, Vintage Gold Jewelry Comments OffThis period art deco cameo has a 14k gold filigree frame detailed with minature hearts, flowers and bows. Made for a lover perhaps. It is both a pin and pendant
Carnelian shell cameo carved with the relief of a young Flapper. Her hair cut to a bob with a bobby pin wave. Her dress is daring with a shoulder revealed. Trimmed with the lace strap and trimmed bodice it shows though her flowing air thin wrap. Off to one side is a carved flower corsage
Called a Cameo Habille “dressed cameo” in this case because our young woman is wearing a natural seed pearl choker with a diamond pendant.
