Antique 10K White Gold Carved Shell Cameo Pin/Pendant – Elegant Lady Portrait
This exquisite antique 10K solid white gold carved shell cameo pin/pendant is a stunning statement piece. Clearly marked “10K” on the hinged lock, it weighs approximately 3.3 grams and measures about 1 1/8″ x 5/8″. The inherent value of the gold alone at today’s market prices is approximately $102.00. The beautifully crafted frame is elegantly shaped with an intricately hand-etched design. The bezel setting features a carved shell cameo measuring about 5/8″ x 1/2″, depicting the profile of a lovely young lady with wavy hair, dangling ringlets, and a draped bodice. She is adorned with a flower in her hair and on her shoulder. This timeless piece, while showing signs of gentle wear, remains in very nice condition and is ready to be treasured.
