[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 377808, member: 5833"]I think it is good to look at all sorts of cameos: materials; quality; subjects; ages. You're training your eye to pick out the treasures among the dross. Seeing the contrast improves your discernment. I swear, the girl on the left, who was originally designed in W. Germany, is the most replicated mass produced cameo of all time. Glass & resin; cameo & intaglio; right facing & left; every color including AB. The earrings appear to be genuine shell & in good condition. Nothing spectacular, but could find a buyer if you're thinking of selling. The cameo in the 9ct ring really has no value of its own. Myself, I would probably put it with things to trade with my jeweller when I need custom work. But it might also be salable.[/QUOTE]
