[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 7902197, member: 5833"]:hilarious::hilarious::hilarious: Nice one, I would have grabbed it too. Think seller likely correct that it is gilt or gold washed silver. I can't tell from pix, do findings show any sign of replacement or repair? In my experience, when those elements, if original, are well made, as they are here, the whole piece is of good quality. I love images of Cupid getting into trouble, but don't have any. I so wanted this one, for both subject matter & type of cameo, but it zoomed past auctioneer's estimate & well out of my range: [ATTACH=full]424706[/ATTACH] In this version you see Psyche, represented by the butterfly, exulting, as I see it. A large part of what drew me to my Talani Leda, when I knew only that it was Leda, was her roll of tummy fat: [ATTACH=full]424707[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
