<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 867661, member: 5833"]The cameo, as evelyb30 has said, is a much reproduced design & does date back at least to the 70s, if not a bit earlier. (The hairstyle rule: a cameo cannot be any older than the hairstyle of the figure.) Unlike 'Headband Girl', Ponytail Girl does turn up in natural materials.

Yours, however is definitely 'resin' & by itself of very little value. The mount, on the other hand, is interesting. I agree it looks older & wonder whether the cameo is a replacement. It is so black I would not be surprised if it is silver. I'm also curious about the one little stone at the top. The mount catches my eye because it reminds me of one in my collection.
