Antique Victorian French Etruscan Revival Coral Cameo Bracelet
Antique Victorian French Etruscan Revival Coral Cameo Bracelet
Mythological, Sculptural.
Five classical female busts of graduating sizes are skillfully carved in profile in high relief in natural coral in this rare Victorian beauty.
The largest, central figure is Artemis, Greek goddess of the hunt, identified by the crescent moon tucked into her hair. Another is Psyche, Greek goddess of the soul, shown with butterfly wings. The other portraits are each unique, with individual features and headdresses, likely other ancient Greek goddesses.
Each portrait is beautifully framed in Etruscan Revival gold wirework and granulation, joined by rosettes, and finished with supple woven gold mesh chain. The rich gold is a lovely foil to the peachy pink hue of the coral.
Safety chain is present.
Shown on a 6 inch wrist.
Marked with French owl.
18k gold, 10k (safety chain), natural coral.
Dimensions and weight:
● 18.5 cm inches long
● 25.8 mm wide
● 9.5 mm deep
● 32.8 grams
Period: Victorian
*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate. Age-commensurate wear may be present. Note that coral has growth lines, natural “imperfections,” and variations in color; these should not be considered flaws. If you would like to see additional photos of the coral for color, please contact us. In addition, the vertical wires on the backside of each cameo are not gold. We don’t think these are functional or structural, and we can have them removed, if desired.
*This item ships only within the United States.
