<p>[QUOTE="Marko, post: 735449, member: 210"]Bronwen, when I was in Cape May, I took these pictures of some of the cameos in an estate jeweler's case. Nothing fabulous and dearly over-priced. The lot had to be photographed through the glass case. I personally like the painted one the best.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]188776[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I thought this brooch was pretty</p><p>[ATTACH=full]188777[/ATTACH] </p><p>This was my favorite. I like to see the Greek and Roman myths in cameos. I believe this is Bellephron riding Pegasus going to slay the Chimera. I will let you guess how much they wanted for this one even with the crazing and the broken part on the frame (see the right). It is set in 10K gold and about 1 1/2 to 2 inches? across.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]188778[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>One of my favorite cameos was in a Cape May estate jeweler's store.
