Brooch with a shell cameo.
Hallmarked 585 yellow gold. 35.16 x 20.26 mm. 7.4 g.
Brooch with a shell cameo in an engraved frame, depicting a woman’s profile looking to the right with a stylized antique hairstyle. A star is also depicted to the left of her neck; this is likely a depiction of the Roman goddess Venus in association with the celestial body named after her as the “Evening Star”. The closure and needle have been renewed; there are some hairline cracks in the cameo (especially in the upper left).
