Antique Victorian 9ct Rose Gold Cameo Brooch
Description
A beautiful example of Victorian craftsmanship, this antique cameo brooch features a finely carved portrait of a Grecian woman in profile. The delicate carving is set into a soft peach-toned shell and framed in a 9ct rose gold mount, offering a warm contrast that enhances the classical detail. The brooch secures with a traditional open ‘C’ clasp and includes a safety chain for added peace of mind.
Cameo jewellery became especially popular during the Victorian era (1837–1901), inspired by the revival of classical antiquity. These wearable works of art often depicted mythological figures, Roman goddesses, or muses—symbols of wisdom, femininity, and timeless beauty.
A graceful and evocative piece, this brooch is a testament to the enduring appeal of neoclassical design and a beautiful addition to any antique jewellery collection.
