A fine French cameo pendant from the 1880s, crafted in 18ct gold and set with a portrait beautifully carved into banded onyx. The crisp white figure is shown in profile against a deep black background, with finely detailed hair, draped neckline, and a necklace.

The mount is simple and elegant, and bears a French eagle’s head hallmark for 18ct gold and the maker’s mark H N. Measuring 6cm in length and 3.5cm in width, it is a wonderful example of late 19th century French craftsmanship.
