<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 4111889, member: 5833"]Hello, LucyLocket. I'm confident the figure is female, although not one with a specific identity. I agree with [USER=33]@Figtree3[/USER] about the time frame, sometime in the era around WWII, maybe even from the war. I have been told people used to come to where Allied troops were stationed in Italy at the end of hostilities & offer cameos for sale to the soldiers. This one was set in Italy, probably in 800 silver. The cameo itself was cut in helmet shell.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
