Antique Cameo Gold Filled Brooch Pendant Hand Carved 1 1/8”

Description:

A beautifully hand carved antique cameo set within a gold filled frame featuring rope twist and scalloped detailing. The cameo itself presents a finely executed classical female profile adorned with floral elements, with soft yet defined carving that reflects traditional craftsmanship.

 Notably, the cameo appears to be older than its setting, with indications that the clasp assembly was added later—something often seen in antique jewelry as pieces were adapted over time for continued wear. This layered history only enhances its character and speaks to a life well lived across generations.

Designed to be worn as both a brooch and pendant, this piece offers versatility and timeless appeal. It embodies the romantic elegance collectors seek in cameo jewelry.
