I found this Cameo pendant wrapped in a tissue inside of my Grandmothers powder jar.This one has to be the smallest I've ever seen. A dime is bigger! It is set in silver and has 3 light blue stones. I don't see any marks or sig's on it anywhere.
This might be in the wrong catagorie since it is encased in silver and the stones are not rhinestones. I don't see any markings on it, like 925, so I don't really know where it should be.
I've seen quite a few costume pieces similar to this one. Small, small cameo molds with rhinestones, usually set in some sort of pot metal. Looks like it would date back to the earlier part of the 20th century, judging the way the rhinestones are cut and the settings used. Really cute piece!
