[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 9476, member: 25"]They look to be qood quality with deep relief and modest amounts of wear. The one with the necklace is unusual. I'd say all are 19th C. Italian, although they posssibly have mounts that originate from where they were retailed, not Italy. Better individual pictures of the front and back of each one would help. Do not confuse them with modern examples, they should fetch much more than low quality, 20th C. cameos. Look through them at a light to spot internal cracks, even if not visible these do tend to devalue them a bit with serious collectors.[/QUOTE]
