This carved shell cameo from the early 1900's is in mint condition. The portrait is of a gentle Bacchante Maiden, a follower of the God Bacchus (Dionysus) - The God of Wine and Plenty. The carving is in very fine detail. The cameo is set in a 14k yellow gold filagree mounting that is mint in every way. The cameo can be worn as a pin or a pendant. The size is slightly under 2 inches from top to bottom, and one and one half inches wide. This is a beautiful Christmas gift waiting for the right buyer.
