What a shame. I have no place to house them either, but some of the scenes are ones I do not recall seeing before, the one on the creamer, the...
Except I think she is in her original frame, which looks older than the silicone molds that can be made now. Molded she is, though, & I have seen...
Conch shell, Psyche, clasp suggests 20s - 30s would be correct, later end of the range I think. Well worth $20; should clean up just fine. :)
I don't know who it's supposed to be, but meets a lot of the conventions for depicting Hercules or some of the Roman emperors.
That date mark is a mystery I have been unable to solve. I have seen it many times, perhaps more common than any other. The chart above was from...

OK, everybody. Opinions wanted. This is not a test, I don't know the right answer either. Are these 2 cameo portraits of the same person? If...
Guess you're repaying me for putting up all this confusing stuff. Now I'm the one who's confused. Huh?
Suggestive, but far from conclusive. This was sold as: A Roman basalt cameo circa 1st - 2nd century AD relief carved with the bust of a maiden,...
[ATTACH] I think it says à Paris. Pardonnez moi! See now this was already said.
