<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 4372050, member: 5833&quot;]The first one I call Headband Girl, &amp; I believe her to be the most reproduced cameo in the world.&nbsp; If yours says &#039;Germany&#039; &amp; not &#039;W. Germany&#039; we can date it to post reunification.&nbsp; The design does not seem to have appeared before WWII, but there are many that say W. Germany.&nbsp; I have a sneaky suspicion she is still in production.&nbsp; Maybe another member will have some thoughts on age based on the setting; that&#039;s not really my area.</p><p><br /></p><p>The second, mother of pearl one could have been made any time from the 1950s to the present.&nbsp; Again, maybe another member can narrow it down from the setting.</p><p><br /></p><p>The cameos in the earrings are genuinely hand carved helmet shell.&nbsp; My opinion of the quality of the workmanship is expressed above.&nbsp; These are no worse than most small cameos I see in earrings &amp; bracelets &amp; they pass casual scrutiny when worn. I can&#039;t date them by appearance. If you&#039;re familiar with the maker Wells you&#039;re ahead of me.&nbsp; I don&#039;t want you to feel bad about my harsh judgement on the cameos.&nbsp; At least they don&#039;t look like this:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]365650[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
