Lost forever
I recently purchased a lot of 3 shell cameos, all are missing their frames. The online auction stated,
"These Cameos were taken from 14K and 10K Gold Pin/Pendants. It wasn't worth it to me to sell as pendants. There is no gold. I melted the gold" NOOOOOOO! who does this?? I purchased them for this one in particular
It is a carved shell cameo of a maiden holding the golden fleece. I can only imagine the frame. The world is left to wonder what the full beauty of this must have looked like. So sad. I have been involved with cameos for quite some time and this is the first one I have seen with this particular subject. It is always exciting for me to learn something new.
