Oh, well, that 'splains it! Maybe I can find something comparable. I can adjust my screen view to change ALL pages 90-degrees but I don't want to...
Yea, Marko! It's a beauty! @Aquitaine, I don't see that tool menu on my page. Which browser do you use?
There are several info sources online, this one seems very comprehensive. I know there's a way to rotate a page 90-degrees, just don't recall...
Very cool! I lean towards it being made in the last 20 years, based on similar inlay I've seen. The round gem looks green to me, perhaps a peridot?
Yes, you can wait for the price to come down. Or, sell some gold you don't love to buy a frame!
I would think a bezel frame with two rings at the top, left and right, to connect to chains would make this a lovely necklace!

Thanks for the explanation and edits on the photo. That's what I thought you meant, just wanted to be sure.
Thank you @Any Jewelry and @mirana ! So, banded agate, while not precise, was accurate. I did not know all chalcedony has been treated! Such...
Hi! No, no printing. The pin only hinges about 75 degrees so I can't get fully under it but it's smooth. The area you are seeing under the pin...
Oooh! Hadn't thought of that! I'll look into it, thanks!
Yes, to @evelyb30 's point, many cameos originally were made with bails that could be swiveled out of sight as well as pins. I tested the...
Perhaps there are two different materials but I doubt it. The portrait does not have a perfectly flat background yet it sits perfectly on the...
I bought this 14K gold-framed cameo a few days ago. There are no markings on it and I'm confident that the safety-clasp and bar mechanism is not...
