<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Curioser, post: 10507661, member: 13823&quot;]I bought this 14K gold-framed cameo a few days ago. There are no markings on it and I&#039;m confident that the safety-clasp and bar mechanism is not original. </p><p>Perhaps the original C clasp was broken or did not provide enough security.&nbsp; The swivel bail is probably also new. I only tested the frame and it is 14K.&nbsp; (Yes, everything looks super clean--the jeweler loves to steam everything he gets!)</p><p><br /></p><p>With no light behind the cameo, it has a lavender hue but the back looks like carnelian.&nbsp; The woman&#039;s portrait is pure white.&nbsp; Is the stone banded agate?</p><p><br /></p><p>And is she a recognizable figure or just a pretty classical lady? I love her flower pendant on beads! </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for your help!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]528337[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]528338[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]528339[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]528340[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]528341[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
