The brooch measures one inches by one & a quarter inches and is all set in a solid silver frame, which although not marked is tested & guarranteed solid silver. The cameo is made of lava and is really beautiful and exquisitely carved of the head & shoulders of a bacchante, in beautiful raised detail and highly quality carved. The cameo needs a pin & Cclasp put on or a bail for wearing as a pendant, as it looks as if this piece may have come from a bracelet and dates to the victorian period and as with age this cameo is finely carved & just needs a good polish, see pics.
This really is a beautiful victorian rare lava cameo in good origional complete condition as stated and such an attractive example of these.
