Vintage Austrian Shell Cameo Brooch Filigree Green Rhinestones 1940s

This exquisite vintage Austrian shell cameo brooch is a timeless example of mid-century Victorian Revival jewelry. It features a hand-carved shell cameo of a classical woman in profile, elegantly framed in ornate gold-tone metal filigree. Two emerald green rhinestones and gold-tone bead accents lend sparkle and depth to the design. Although unmarked, this brooch comes from an estate collection of confirmed Austrian origin and displays the signature craftsmanship and romantic detail Austrian jewelry is known for. ---------------------------------------- * Origin: Austria (unmarked, from Austrian estate collection) * Era: 1940s–1950s * Cameo: Hand-carved natural shell cameo * Frame: Ornate gold-tone filigree with green rhinestones and gold bead accents * Closure: Roll-over locking clasp (secure and functional) * Size: Approx. 2.5" wide x 1.25" tall * Condition: Very good vintage condition.
