Description

Aparte historical brooch in yellow gold 585 / 14 Kt (tested and guaranteed) and a finely cut cameo in delicate pink Conch shell. The Gemme shows the representation of a maenad in profile to the left. The maenads come from the retinue of the wine god Bacchus and are characterized by their typical attributes: the hair decorated with vine leaves, a fur placed around the shoulders (here ram skin) and the thyrsos (a staff crowned with a pine cone). The oval cameo sits in a smooth frame, which is decorated with sculpturally curved tendril motifs. On the back it has a simple needling with C-hooks.
The exquisite brooch was created around 1900 and is a wonderful collector's item for every antique jewelry lover.

Dimensions of the brooch: 4,9 x 4,1 cm.
Dimensions of the cameo: approx. 3.8 x 3.1 cm.
Weight: 14.2 grams.
Condition: Fabulous condition, freshly cleaned, see photos.

You will receive the brooch lovingly packed in one of our high-quality cases and with a certificate of authenticity.
Please note: Vintage and antique jewellery are worn objects which may show slight signs of wear due to their history.
