Seller's Note/ As seen in the photo, our cameo features the profile of a very wealthy aristocrat, nose raised, and possibly from the Austro-Hungarian empire dynasty. In his profile, we see that he is wearing a wig tied behind his neck and a high ruffeled collar beneath his chin. Such solitaire engraved cameos are very rare and ours is museum quality, no doubt.
