Vintage Shell Cameo Brooch Pendant Gold Tone Faux Pearl Filigree
This elegant vintage brooch-pendant features a beautifully carved shell cameo depicting a classical lady's profile in soft ivory and warm peach tones. The cameo is framed within an ornate gold-tone filigree setting, accented by a delicate border of luminous faux pearls, creating a timeless Victorian-revival aesthetic.
Designed from the outset as a dual-purpose piece, it includes an integrated pendant loop as well as a secure brooch pin on the reverse, allowing it to be worn either as a statement brooch or suspended from a chain as a pendant. The reverse bears a C943 production mark, commonly seen on mid-20th-century European export costume jewellery.
The cameo displays natural colour variation and fine relief carving consistent with genuine shell, while the setting shows an even, gentle patina that enhances its vintage character. All pearl accents are intact, and the clasp and loop remain fully functional.
A charming and collectible accessory, ideal for lovers of cameo jewellery, Victorian-inspired fashion, or quality vintage costume pieces.
