Description
A Silver pendant necklace featuring a hand-carved shell cameo set within a rectangular frame. The oval cameo depicts a classical female profile in white relief against a brownish-orange ground, held in a plain bezel setting. The frame is designed with beveled corners and decorated with engraved geometric hatching in an Art Deco style. The pendant is suspended from a large tapered bail onto a flat snake link chain, also known as a herringbone style. The chain is secured with a spring ring clasp and a soldered jump ring. The silver components exhibit areas of natural oxidation, particularly within the recessed engravings of the frame. No legible hallmarks or maker’s marks are visible on the piece.
