<p>[QUOTE="Lizzie, post: 151790, member: 2027"]I have this rather large cameo pendant that, if possible, I would like some information on. With the setting it is 2 1/4" by 1 7/8". I think the setting is gun metal. It's rather heavy and solid. The material of the cameo I am unsure of but I think it might be plastic. According to my grandmother it belonged to her mother who died in 1931. In one of the picture showing the side there is a gap between the cameo and the setting so it's possible that the cameo is not original to the setting. I can also see what I think is glue residue on the back bottom. Any theories or opinions would be most welcome in regard to it's age or where it might have originated.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]40968[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]40970[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]40969[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]40971[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]40972[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
