Description

Hand-carved coral cameo brooch-pendant featuring a high-relief forward-facing bust of a classical woman with detailed hair and drapery. The cameo is carved from natural orange-pink coral with visible depth and natural variation. The mount is marked 10 KT. The piece is designed for dual wear with both a pin back and an integrated pendant bail. The reverse shows some adhesive residue from prior repair to the mount and the coral does have a crack across it, but it’s not all the way through. Measures 2 1/2” w/ bail x 7/8” and weighs approx. 11.1 grams.
