Antique Victorian Cameo Pin – Black Glass, Gold Washed, Floral Detailing

This exquisite antique Victorian or Edwardian molded black glass cameo pin is a captivating piece from the mid to late 1800s. Crafted from gold-washed brass, it showcases intricate scalloped detailing with raised floral motifs and remnants of its original bright gold wash. The centerpiece is a faceted black glass cameo measuring approximately 1 1/4 inches across and 1/4 inch thick. The cameo depicts a young woman in profile, adorned with a detailed headband and assorted embellishments. She wears a double choker strand of pearls and a draped bodice, adding to the piece’s Victorian elegance. The pin features an extended pin with a secure ‘C’ clasp in good working order. While the cameo can rotate within its four-prong setting, it remains securely fastened. This charming vintage cameo is a testament to the craftsmanship of its era.
