<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 2287700, member: 5833&quot;]It can be hard to tell if the cameo is small &amp; a lot of it is covered with the setting, but the coloring of that one is all wrong.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you haven&#039;t stopped in on the Cameo Show &amp; Tell thread of late, you will not have seen one of my favorite rants.&nbsp; This is not onyx, despite what book says.&nbsp; Author even notes that it&#039;s weird to have such a cameo on a stock compact:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/596806786/onyx-cameo-gorgeous-greek-goddess?ga_order=most_relevant&amp;ga_search_type=all&amp;ga_view_type=gallery&amp;ga_search_query=cameo&amp;ref=sr_gallery-1-13&amp;organic_search_click=1&amp;frs=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/596806786/onyx-cameo-gorgeous-greek-goddess?ga_order=most_relevant&amp;ga_search_type=all&amp;ga_view_type=gallery&amp;ga_search_query=cameo&amp;ref=sr_gallery-1-13&amp;organic_search_click=1&amp;frs=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/listing/596806786/onyx-cameo-gorgeous-greek-goddess?ga_order=most_relevant&amp;ga_search_type=all&amp;ga_view_type=gallery&amp;ga_search_query=cameo&amp;ref=sr_gallery-1-13&amp;organic_search_click=1&amp;frs=1</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Meanwhile, also on etsy:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/823657193/antique-victorian-cameo-brooch?ga_order=date_desc&amp;ga_search_type=vintage&amp;ga_view_type=gallery&amp;ga_search_query=cameo&amp;ref=sr_gallery-4-12&amp;organic_search_click=1&amp;frs=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/823657193/antique-victorian-cameo-brooch?ga_order=date_desc&amp;ga_search_type=vintage&amp;ga_view_type=gallery&amp;ga_search_query=cameo&amp;ref=sr_gallery-4-12&amp;organic_search_click=1&amp;frs=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/listing/823657193/antique-victorian-cameo-brooch?ga_order=date_desc&amp;ga_search_type=vintage&amp;ga_view_type=gallery&amp;ga_search_query=cameo&amp;ref=sr_gallery-4-12&amp;organic_search_click=1&amp;frs=1</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I did contact seller of compact, to no acknowledgment &amp; no effect.&nbsp; Anyone who buys cameos in this price range would not be fooled, but, with the book behind it, I&#039;m afraid some compact collector will get taken.&nbsp; I&#039;m less worried about the other one because these do sell in that price range, even when correctly described as resin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
