[QUOTE="antiquity, post: 410177, member: 8747"]Thank you for your insight Bronwen, After I had received these pieces, I took them to a gemologist who ascertained that the cameos were in fact carved shell, and the necklace was acid tested to be 10k gold. The ring I had a previous appraisal with it, that was certified to be 10k gold also. I did ask for any information on these pieces and I thank you for your comments, understanding of course the person I took them to, actually had them in hand , and under magnification, so I know that makes a tremendous difference. What I was really after was to try and date them. Again, I thank you for the comments, and I myself will now be better acquainted to look and discern a real one from a reproduction. Thanks, Bill[/QUOTE]
