[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 9560978, member: 5833"][This has been a work in progress.] This one has been flying under my radar. I looked in the 3 of my files where I might have stored her - artificial cameos, glass cameos, cameos of Demeter/Persephone - and only found this one: [ATTACH=full]457387[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]457388[/ATTACH] She's not identical, the earring is the most obvious difference, but they must have a primary source in common, possibly another coin. I could not find this likeness in the Tassie impressions. From Simona's verbal description, I was imagining some features as a little different than her terrific photos show they actually are. The reddish color I thought would be more like this: [ATTACH=full]457410[/ATTACH] The spreading glue I thought would be more like the area at the front of the hair of this lady: [ATTACH=full]457411[/ATTACH] It is not glue; it is a bit of the ground layer left to reinforce the tendrils, what I call an aura. [More to come.][/QUOTE]
