Art Nouveau Era Three Graces Cameo Brooch
Item #BG13698
Measures 1-1/2 x 1-7/8". This beautiful old shell cameo depicts the three Graces of Greek mythology. They are dancing beneath an arch of roses, wearing short filmy gowns. The cameo is set in a silver-tone frame with a twisted rope border. Although unmarked, this setting appears to be 800 silver or better. The original T-hinge and pin-stem are present, but the safety clasp appears to be a replacement. The brooch probably had a C-clasp originally, which some previous owner replaced for greater security. The replacement was skillfully done and is unobtrusive. No chips, scratches, or other damage to the cameo. Normal patina of vintage silver has been left undisturbed. $175.00 (Includes insured shipping to a U.S.A. address)
