Rare antique Grand Tour white lava cameo bracelet featuring five deeply carved high-relief classical female bust cameos set in a marked 1/20 12K gold-filled bracelet mount.
Each cameo is individually carved in white lava stone with a sculptural, highly raised profile. The figures show classical facial features, detailed hair, drapery, garland elements, and strong three-dimensional relief. The white matte, porous surface is characteristic of carved lava stone cameos traditionally associated with Italian Grand Tour jewelry of the 19th century.
The bracelet is visually dramatic and presents beautifully, with five large carved cameos arranged in a linked bracelet form. The clasp/mount is marked 1/20 12K G.F. The bracelet also retains its safety chain.
Condition:
Good antique/vintage condition overall with age-related wear. The five carved white lava cameos are intact and display beautifully, with no cracks or major losses observed. Minor high-point wear/nicks are present on a few raised details, including small wear to some noses, hair, and garland areas, consistent with age and the soft porous nature of carved lava stone.
The 1/20 12K gold-filled mount shows age-related wear and visible separation/lifting at one end bezel/connection area, as shown in the photos. The bracelet can display beautifully as-is, but professional stabilization or repair is recommended before regular wear. Please review all photos carefully, especially the close-up images of the mount, clasp, connections, and cameo surfaces.
A striking collector’s piece for lovers of Grand Tour jewelry, antique cameos, classical revival jewelry, and sculptural carved lava stone work.
