Antique Dieppe Carved Ivory Cameo Pendant
About the Item
An utterly distinctive and truly captivating vintage treasure! This Victorian cameo, meticulously crafted from ivory, portrays a petite angel encircled by blossoms. Absolutely breathtaking! The intricately detailed image boasts an impressive size. The cameo measures 3.5 by 6 cm. This cameo does not even require a frame, since it already has its own, also carved from ivory. In addition, there is a hanging ring that allows you to use it as a pendant. On the reverse side of the cameo, the Gunther-Schräger lines are clearly visible, which are the distinguishing feature of ivory from anything else.
The era of this cameo is circa 1840-1850. It was surely carved in Dieppe, France, one of the capitals of ivory carving during the Georgian and Victorian eras. Absolutely fantastic! I have never seen anything like this one, and I really can affirm that this is a unique artwork. It is a very desirable collector's piece.
This antique treasure is in excellent condition!
It is a cameo absolutely unique. "You have to see it to believe it." A true work of art in miniature!

Vintage 18k Gold Carved Shell Cameo Pendant
Located in New York, NY
There is something so magical to me about vintage and antique cameos: the way the portraits are rendered in such incredible detail seems to tell a person's mystery. This cameo is carved from genuine shell with such impressive precision, and it's set in solid 18k gold. It is both a pendant, and a brooch; the pin back is not visible when it's worn as a pendant, and I love the way the bail dangles down and disappears when it's worn as brooch, making it truly two pieces in one. It was likely made in the 1930s, but it's also possible that the cameo itself was made even earlier, and the brooch fastener was later added around the 1930s or 1940s. This cameo depicts a Spanish woman, wearing a mantilla comb...
