[QUOTE="mirana, post: 10411091, member: 79705"]Oooh can't wait for your pics after you receive him! How on earth did your mother witness you assemble such a stunning collection of cameos over so many years and totally forget about this piece?? :hilarious::rolleyes: I guess perhaps she didn't consider it a cameo like a brooch? Meanwhile, my relations are excited to pull out mid-century hatchet face and a variety of Avon and Whiting and Davis to show me. :p No shade to their pieces, as of course I've got plastic and whatnot, but it would be nothing impressive such as this! How lucky! She's lovely. Pictures don't really do justice to how even more impressive these things are in hand at their tiny size. They read differently and even more beautiful. I would buy any of these of course. I'm most drawn to the Wedgwood for all the interesting frame detail and a different depiction than what we see now from them. Marcasites never photo right because they are such a riot of sparkle in person. I bet that one is even more impressive. I definitely want to get a cowrie cameo someday. They have such an interesting look. I would wear the little flower all the time probably. That little girl is so faithfully rendered and touching. This one is so terrible you should let me have it. It would be difficult, but I would manage. :playful: It's is SO beautiful! And I can't stand imagining how stunning it must be in person with the depth of those stones. I'd probably be caught staring at it often.[/QUOTE]
