Bidspirit auction | Vintage Gold-Tone and Carved Shell

Vintage Gold-Tone and Carved Shell Cameo Pendant Necklace - This necklace features an oval shell cameo pendant set in a gold-tone frame and suspended from a matching cable link chain. The cameo is carved in relief from natural shell, depicting a right-facing profile of a woman with an upswept hairstyle and floral accents. The pendant frame is designed with a twisted rope outer border and a serrated inner bezel. The chain is secured with a spring-ring clasp. No hallmarks or maker marks are clearly visible on the pendant, bail, or clasp. The surface wear and color variations present on the metal components suggest a gold-plated or gold-filled finish over a base metal. Pendant height: 0.9 inches Chain length: 18 inches. Good vintage condition. The gold-tone finish shows visible wear and minor tarnishing, particularly on the chain, clasp, and the raised edges of the pendant frame. The carved shell cameo is well-preserved with no significant chips or cracks visible. The spring-ring clasp is functional.
