Well, because I was asked, here are my ladies. Front and back, real/fake, including my few oldies with their C-clasp.
The collection started simple enough, I was doing a little treasure box and wanted one for the decor. Then I saw how many there where, the different types, how not one is alike the other. They are all so different, and some have seen changing of the times.
My largest issue I'm having is dating them. 1840ish is when they stopped using C-clasp if I remember correctly and started with the safety belts. I'm going to post another as well with more photos of the ladies and ramble on. My C-clasp ones, I oddly found at a coin shop for 8 each!!!!
Some beauties here.
BTW I am no collector of cameos but I respect the age and beauty of them.
Pretty amazing collection considering you fell in to this not so long ago!
I respect the age as well. Been trying to figure ways to display in a manor where you can see the time period, yet stay safe from drops and bumps. It's not easy.
I appreciate your kind words, yes, there's an awful lot for being so new. Haha
Your ladies are BEAUTIFUL!! Impressive collection.
Thank you so much!! I have more coming that are a bit older, husband thinks I'm lucky since I think 20 is the highest I've ever paid for just 1 lol.
