[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 402123, member: 5833"]First looks like Queen Elizabeth I, & yes, photos are somewhat out of focus, but does appear to have housed a swing out magnifying lens. The second cameo itself appears to be stone. Again, fuzzy focus, but looks, as you say, not very good to begin with, not improved with wear. The noses on these frequently get knocked off.
