<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PepperAnna, post: 9470211, member: 17332&quot;]A pair of portrait cameos that were in a recent auction.&nbsp; Quite beautiful, I think. Sadly, the lady cameo is cracked. I think, under the bust, each one is signed &quot;Reverchon&quot;, with perhaps a date, too. Unfortunately, with all the dust, it is hard to make out. I would have loved to see the backs of the cameos.</p><p><br /></p><p>I wish there was a way to discern which Reverchon carved the cameos. There are 3 cameo cutters with the name Reverchon that I know of: Francois-Joseph-Charles Reverchon (husband), Louise Reverchon (wife), and Charles Reverchon (son).&nbsp; As you can guess from the names, they were French and lived in Paris. Francois was active from the 1850s to 1880s, Louise (1860s-1880s) and Charles (1870s-1880s).</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]442934[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]442935[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]442936[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]442937[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]442938[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
