Antique Victorian Cameo Shell Princess
About the Item
This Victorian unmounted Carnelian shell cameo depicting the right-facing profile of the Princess is very well carved in exquisite detail. The surface is as crisp as the day it was crafted, impressive for a shell cameo from the late Victorian era. This would date back to around the 1860s-1890s.
The carving on this cameo is excellent and well-detailed, with good relief. This was carved by an excellent carver, as were most Victorian cameos.
This loose cameo would make a brooch or pendant and measures circa 48.4 x 38.7 mm. Slightly curved. It is a beautiful antique unmounted shell cameo.
There are light lines on the cameo shell (no cracks), which are practically invisible. The photos are slightly enlarged so you can see all the advantages and disadvantages of this beautiful antique piece.

The manufacture of jewelry made from natural stones has its own subtleties associated primarily with the selection of gems. The gems in the products should be ideally matched in terms of shade, cut quality, and size. In all our jewelry items, we strive to emphasize the natural beauty of the stone, using gold and silver only as a light accent, as an organic addition to the magical internal appeal of the gem. We offer the best collection of vintage beads. Turquoise, corals, garnets, amethysts, lapis lazuli, jades, and other unique gems acquire a variety of shapes and shapes and are impeccable in their radiance and brilliance.
