[QUOTE="quirkygirl, post: 3897457, member: 106"]Been meaning to ask about this large-ish (about 2¼"), cameo that I rec'd in a costume jewelry auction lot last year (lucky break ... it wasn't even the item that I originally wanted the lot :smuggrin:). Since the camera battery is charged now seems as good a time as any to post it here. Hoping Bronwen (or anyone else who would know, for that matter), can explain what is being depicted ... especially the large third face at the base of the two other people. Google suggests that the sig. belongs to a skilled and popular carver, but that when signed in this manner that the work was that of a student and not the master carver himself ... is this a fact?
