[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 695467, member: 5833"]Unusual, I'll say that for them. I don't think they are actual Wedgwood. Is the necklace pendant definitely a jasper ware plaque held under a plastic cover? Verifying it is not reverse carved. I was told once by someone who specialized in early plastic jewellery that when a pin is attached like this, using plastic where we usually see metal, it dates to WWII, when access to metals for non-war purposes was limited. This is a general jewellery question more than a cameo one, so we'll see what others say.[/QUOTE]
