<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 650271, member: 5833"]She's helmet shell. Value now is sentimental. As has been pointed out, she's in no fit condition to be set as jewellery as she is. She could be salvaged by chipping away the background layer & creating a custom mount for the figure alone, but I'm afraid the carving is not so good that most people would think it worth doing. Might be turned into decor, under glass in a shadow box. She is not going to make you rich, I'm afraid.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
