Vintage Large 18K Yellow Gold Carved Shell Cameo Pendant or Brooch

About the Item

A yellow gold and carved shell cameo pendant, comprising one octagonal panel of carved shell, set within an 18 karat yellow gold frame, with 18 karat yellow gold fittings. This statement pendant is large in size, sure to catch many an eye. The carved shell cameo is octagonal in shape and is set within a frame of satin effect yellow gold, adorned with twisted rope detailing and a round brilliant cut diamond set flower. The hand carved cameo depicts a young lady in profile, with a hooded cloak pulled over her head; her hair blows in the wind, as she looks upward and to the right, surrounded by swathes of fabric, perhaps her cloak blowing around her in the wind? The cameo is signed “GG”. The pendant is fitted with a substantial hinged bale, which can flip down behind the cameo, allowing it to be worn as a brooch. The pendant is in great condition. Wear and tear acquiescent with age. Pendant height (including bale): 70mm Pendant height (excluding bale): 57mm Pendant width: 59mm Pendant depth (excluding pin): 13mm Gross weight: 26.48g Hallmarks: 750 (18 karat gold), bearing makers mark beginning with “WE..”
