This fine and attractive antique Victorian era 9ct gold cameo brooch is really second to none in its detail and design.

A very finely carved bullmouth shell cameo depicting Hebe feeding nectar to Zeus as the eagle, housed in a smooth and rich 9ct yellow gold frame.

An unusual subject matter, it is always a pleasure to find unusual or unique cameos, this has a beautiful and detailed carving.

To the reverse there is a safety catch and pin fastener and space to attach a safety chain if desired.

This is an exceptionally well carved cameo and these finer cameos are always highly sought after by collectors and jewellery lovers alike, I love the fine details and three dimensional effect of the carving.
