Of course I was drawn to the gorgeous double snake frame modelled in 18 carat gold, (which has a gorgeous patina btw)
The beautiful pink shell cameo is of Louis XIV I am told.
 
Circa 1860
 
measures 38mm x 42mm
 
weighs - 21.2g
 
I thought because of the subject this would be french but I cant see any marks
 
condition excellent
