    I met up with @Bronwen on Feb 29th during a short visit to NYC. We had a lovely afternoon wandering around the MET! It was such a pleasure to meet her.
    Hopefully, all is well...

    Yay! I regret deeply we finally weren't able to meet when I went to New York in 2018 for a too short trip:facepalm:

    That's different to have an armadillo trap on it.

    Two cameos I picked up last week, one is 10k gold the other 800 silver. The one in silver is signed on the back, very hard to get a shot of it but I tried.

    OMG, at first glance, I thought this looked like a woman wearing a burqa. :shy:

    Sorry, KSW & everyone. I got lost in my 1 bedroom apartment for several weeks. Now that I'm confined here I found my way back.

    Don't know if you've already missed the opportunity to buy, but my advice would have been to save your money. The price is reasonable, but don't think you could sell for more & piece not really worth having (very common & ordinary) in your own collection.

    A custom engraved signet for sure. Beware of what? I agree with Holly that it looks like an armadillo. The other bit suggests an oil drilling rig to me, so maybe owner was a Texan? My most elaborately set cameo came out of an abandoned Texan safety deposit box.

    The quality of the findings, the clasp & the hinge for the bail, is a tip off that whole piece is good quality. Shame about the traumatic rhinoplasty. So common, first thing I always check for on cameos like this.

    Thank you, Houseful. It happens sometimes, to the consternation & annoyance of everyone who knows me. It leads to a volume of apologies needed.
