Post Medieval bone and yellow metal mount, pendant or brooch. The central neo-classical female bust has been carved out of bone and set into a beaded yellow metal, probably a gold alloy, oval band. At a later date this has been enclosed, probably as a repair, by a facetted yellow metal oval band. This bears scarring, possibly from mounts to make it useable as a mount, pendant or brooch. It is possible that original bone carving may have been done by a Napoleonic prisoner of war in order to earn some extra money. It is also possible that it was originally coated in another material, po…
