<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 338974, member: 5833&quot;]Bronwen was very late getting sufficiently caffeinated today.&nbsp; All good answers without me.&nbsp; It is a cameo, exactly as explained, since the figure, who looks like Apollo, rises above the background in relief, rather than having been etched down into the material so the figure is below the surface.&nbsp; (Both types &amp; all materials are welcome on the thread I started, but no reason this handsome bracelet should not have a thread of its own.)</p><p><br /></p><p>It does appear to be glass, I think with a satin finish?&nbsp; There is a resemblance to the higher quality work of <a href="http://www.tagliamonte.com/a_10_EN_7_1.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.tagliamonte.com/a_10_EN_7_1.html" rel="nofollow">Tagliamonte</a> (who must have one of the world&#039;s worst Internet sites.)&nbsp; They are not the only jewellery maker to use Venetian glass cameos/intaglios in their work.&nbsp; Think it was probably new when you received it.&nbsp; Nice gift![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
