A well-made vintage pendant, a polished hematite teardrop set with a moulded iridescent glass classical portrait depicting an elaborate feathered headdress and finely curled hair. The silver tone arrow finial bail and deeply cut starburst reverse add real detail to this revival-era take on the long tradition of hematite cameo jewellery.
