Antique cameo brooch locket from the Victorian era
This is such an elegant antique cameo brooch locket from the Victorian era that dates from the 1870's and has such a regal look and feel to it.
Made in 15 carat gold and measuring 4.1cm across by 7cm from the very top to the bottom of the foxtail link tassel, the brooch has a very elegant sway and flow to it when worn thanks to the charming tassel.
The cameo has been expertly hand carved and displays so much detail and would have been carved by a true master who knew how to exemplify fine quality that is combined with the stunning mount that it has been placed into.
Not only a brooch, the reverse side has a locket compartment making this so much more unique and personal once a photo is placed inside.
This is a lovely antique cameo brooch that also has a matching pair of earrings which can be viewed in another window here: https://www.kalmarantiques.com.au/product/antique-cameo-drop-earrings-from-the-victorian-era/

Victorian era 15ct gold antique pink conch shell cameo
So beautifully and expertly hand carved, there is little doubt that this Victorian era 15ct gold antique pink conch shell cameo.
Today there are many cameos on the market which are not hand engraved and therefore don't have that wonderful artistic beauty often seen in an antique cameo such as this one. The intricate detail in the face and the hair is just captivating and made all the more special by being carved in the pink conch shell. Cameos are more often carved in the helmet cameo which is more of an orange and white/beige colouring, so the delicate pink and white colours seen here are just beautiful.
With a spectacular mount with so much incredible work, the mount is made in 15ct gold and measures 46.6mm across by 47.7mm from top to bottom. Even around the border it has been hand engraved which in itself would have taken so long to create.
This is such a stunning antique cameo, that will always look so impressive on any outfit.
