"Beautiful Vestal From The Antique, Agate Cameo In High Relief XIXth Century"
Beautiful bustal vestal from the antique.
it is a very beautiful Napoleon III period brooch decorated with an imposing two-layer cameo carved in very high relief.
the young vestal is superb and appears to us the bust turned by three quarters, the smiling face, the almond-shaped eyes, the hair styled in the antique style and carrying a fine garland of flowers in her hairstyle, perhaps roses.
the details are superb, the face is very finely executed and the dress has a beautiful drape in the antique, the pleated is beautifully worked.
the cameo is sculpted in very high relief, the face of the vestal stands out in a thick layer of white agate almost 2 cm thick and it rests on a layer of orange agate forming the background. A beautiful cameo with such relief it is really a very nice work of glyptic.
this cameo and st mounted in a 750/00 gold brooch, in Etruscan taste decorated with 16 pink stones in cabochons alternating with black enamel beads.
the whole is lovely.
this beautiful, high-quality brooch has retained its original safety chain with a fixing needle at the end.
the cameo has a signature trace on the back. inspired by the antique, this cameo is of very good quality and the mount of the brooch in Etruscan taste recalls beautiful Italian jewelry from the 2nd half of the 19th century.
