the first is a cameo pin that I can't find in any of the jewelry books, it seems to be the gemini twins dancing, it's very unique and the setting looks like vermeil but I've never had it appraised so I won't swear to that, but it is definately hand carvedthere are tiny imperfections that anyone who collects cameos would know meant hand carved and the setting it tiny leaves with roses. it's about 1 1/2 inches across with a round mount. I picked it up in an antique shop in old town Fredericksburg, VA. Make me an offer, as I said in the rings I posted, I need money to pay bills this month due to emergency surgery. the 2nd is a classic cameo in a gold plated setting it's approximately 1 5/8 inches long and 1 1/4 inches wide. the setting is just a fine scallop, not sure who the maker is, there is no marking at all. the next is a small fancy set cameo about 1 1/4 tall and 1 inch wide and is another classic cameo, very pretty. also from old town Fredericksburg, VA next one I know the setting is an antique, an old chat friend I had in upstate NY used to go in to old buildings and clean them out for renovators and she went in what used to be an old jewelry factory of some sort and found all these antique settings, so she had them cleaned up and refinished with an antiqued finish and bought new carved cameos and Swarzovski crystals to put in them, I bought 3, gave one to mom and keeping one but gonna sell the 3rd, it's very pretty, looks art nouvaeu and the cameo is black so it's striking, I think I paid $20, but she was a friend, so don't know how much it's really worth. the last is a small antique black cameo , the silver rope setting is definately old, it's another one I picked up in old town Fredericksburg, VA in a hole in the wall antique shop that had alot of civil war era things, it looks incredibly old, but I can't find a manufacturers or artist mark, so I can't even begin to tell you how old it is. So just judge by the aestetics of the pieces and make me an offer guys, cuz the money is desperately needed right now. just email me at [Only registered and activated users can see links.
