VINTAGE APA CAMEO BROOCH PIN PENDANT 800 PRETTY GIRL ORIGINAL BOX NAPLES ITALY

Description

FEATURING A VINTAGE OVAL SHELL CAMEO BROOCH/PIN/PENDANT OF PROFILE OF BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY. LOVELY FEATURES, HAIR STYLE, GOWN WITH FLOWER ON HER SHOULDER.  SET IN 800 FINE CONTINENTAL SILVER, GENERALLY THE EUROPEAN STANDARD WHICH IS JUST A LITTLE LESS CONTENT OF SILVER THAN THE AMERICAN STANDARD OF 925 FINE. TWISTED GOLD WIRE ADDS A NICE TOUCH TO THE SETTING.
CAN BE WORN AS A BROOCH OR PENDANT. THE PENDANT IS ON A HINGE. IT IS DOWN WHEN WEARING AS A BROOCH, AND UP IF WEARING AS A PENDANT.
AS FOUND IN ORIGINAL BOX WITH "APA SINCE 1848" WRITTEN ON THE BOX. SURELY PURCHASED AT THAT STORE BY THE FORMER OWNER, PROBABLY A WELL TRAVELED LADY. APA IS ONE OF THE BEST, IF NOT THE BEST, CREATORS OF BEAUTIFUL CAMEOS IN THE WORLD. WHEN VISITING THIS EXCLUSIVE SHOP, ONE CAN SEE THE ARTISANS CARVING THE CAMEOS, PLUS, SEE A WONDERFUL MUSEUM OF CAMEOS IN THEIR COLLECTION. THIS FABULOUS MUSEUM OF ANTIQUE CAMEOS AND STORE IS LOCATED NEAR THE ENTRANCE TO POMPEII. A NEW CAMEO AT APA, SUCH AS THIS LISTING, WOULD PROBABLY COST 6 TIMES  THE STARTING PRICE OF THIS ONE.
STAMPED 800 AND THE ITALIAN HALLMARKS FOR 800 SILVER.
EXCELLENT CONDITION! NO DAMAGES OR REPAIRS. ALL ORIGINAL. THE FINE BOX THAT CAME WITH THE CAMEO IS ALSO IN GREAT CONDITION AND LINED WITH MATERIAL THAT LOOKS LIKE IT COULD BE LEATHER.
DIMENSIONS: 1 1/4" HIGH X SLIGHTLY OVER 1" WIDE. WEIGHT: 4.4 GRAMS.
