<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mirana, post: 10656098, member: 79705&quot;]She&#039;s a cutie and cleaned up beautifully! I have a bunch of smaller &quot;cruder&quot; cameos in my collection simply because I know I can wear them out without much worry and from a expected viewing distance, they can look quite nice and detailed!</p><p><br /></p><p>The frame may be Whitby Jet. Many cameos were imported from Italy for jet carvers to mount like this. There are other materials that faked being Whitby jet, but the Whitby stuff tends to have back fixings glued like this one.</p><p><br /></p><p>It looks like this cameo may have started life strung on a bracelet or necklace and that&#039;s why it&#039;s got those grooves on the back. Someone may have later converted it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
