<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 3346453, member: 5833"]The cameo is coral. She is not clearly identifiable, no visible attributes, although she reminds me of some Dianas. Looks like she has soap or polish residue around the edges. This would probably come off with water & a soft toothbrush. This one can't be soaked safely because of the openings into the hollow tube that frames it. You don't want to get water into it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mount is really interesting, sort of a flamboyant take on a lovers' knot in gilt brass. Last quarter of the 19th would be my guess.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
