Vintage Cameo Brooch with Filigree Frame

This item is a vintage-style cameo brooch or pin, featuring a classical female profile carved in relief against a reddish-brown background. The cameo itself appears to be made from a composite material, possibly resin or plastic, given the slightly translucent, creamy-white color of the figure and the uniform matte finish. The details of the woman's hair are finely rendered with soft waves and curls, suggesting a rococo or Victorian aesthetic. Her shoulder and neck are also visible, with drapery over the bust. The reddish-brown oval surround showcases the white relief effectively. The cameo is set within an ornate, possibly gold-toned or brass-toned metal frame. The frame features a delicate filigree-like design with scalloped edges and small spherical accents around the perimeter, adding to its decorative appeal. On the left side of the frame, there are additional decorative elements resembling small baroque pearls set within a coiled or tangled wire design, suggesting a possibly larger piece of jewelry this may have once been part of, or simply an elaborate attachment. The metal components show some signs of age, including a slight tarnishing or patina consistent with older costume jewelry. There are no obvious signs of significant damage like chips or cracks on the cameo itself, but the overall condition appears to reflect typical wear for an item of its age. Without examining the reverse, manufacturing details such as maker's marks or specific construction methods are not discernible. The style strongly suggests a mid-20th century production, perhaps 1940s to 1960s, a period when cameos and intricate costume jewelry were very popular.
