<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PepperAnna, post: 4612483, member: 17332&quot;]I recently added this cameo to my collection- carved by Charles Jouanin! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie58" alt=":joyful:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> The inscription includes his full name and his abbreviated address: RND de Nazareth 43 Paris (Rue Notre Dame de Nazareth #43 Paris).</p><p><br /></p><p>The carving is exquisite and finely detailed. Jouanin even carved the vein running down his forehead. Based on the carving around his collar (oak leaves), I think the sitter was a French military general. I have not yet figured out the medals.</p><p><br /></p><p>Equally nice is the setting. The enamel is completely intact and the chasing is very detailed. It glitters.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]410540[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]410541[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]410542[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]410544[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]410543[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
