Fabulous Victorian Cameo Brooch Pin With Whitby Jet Frame Depicting Athena terrier brooch If in doubtDescription: A quite unusual cameo. The cameo carving itself is exquisite and fine, a real work of art, the face especially is wonderfully done and she herself is wearing a brooch cloak closure with a face on, there's also a little snake in there somewhere! Athena we believe please come and tell us if we're wrong! So unusually good quality but also nice to get a Whitby jet backing which in itself is beautifully carved Age: c1860 1880, Victorian Size
