<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 4612045, member: 5833&quot;]As komo said, helmet shell; cameo would have been cut in Italy &amp; set elsewhere.&nbsp; As stracci noted, style of the lady is 20s/30s.&nbsp; This one is quite plain; it is usual for them to have flowers in hair, on shoulder, or both.&nbsp; Cameo representations of contemporary women tend to lag behind the fashion a bit.&nbsp; I would put this piece to later 30s into the 40s.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would not expect the mount to be solid gold, but quality of cameo &amp; quality of setting are not always commensurate.&nbsp; Doubt this would be gilt silver either.&nbsp; Rolled gold/gold filled are most likely.&nbsp; Clasp looks original to me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
