Late Victorian oval cameo brooch featuring a classical profile portrait of a lady in high relief with floral accents in her hair. The central cabochon is crafted from cream-toned opaque glass set into a gold tone brass frame.
The surrounding setting features a bezel with an outer textured rope twist border. The reverse reveals a stippled glass back plate alongside authentic late 19th-century hardware, including a long pin stem extending past the frame, a tube hinge, and a traditional open C clasp closure.
The piece measures 5cm in height by 4cm in width. Condition is very good, with light cosmetic wear as expected of a piece that is approximately 150 years old. The pin stem has a slight kink but functions properly, and the clasp closes securely.
This antique classical piece would suit Victorian, Dark Academia, or classic antique jewelry collections. Please review photos as they form part of the description.
