WOW HAVE YOU EVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE?From my own collection a hand carved tortoise shell cameo necklace with 8 cameos.I have looked at this very carefully and it is perfect.The only thing I see is one of the cameos seems to be upside down which I think a good jeweler could un glue it and turn it the other way or it may have been meant to be that way.Also there may have been a cameo in each of the top blank pieces as there is a tiny hole for a stake..The necklace is 21" long and the drop is another 3".It does open at the back with a hook.The cameos are all hand carved and that of Baccantes except the one in the middle before the drop looks like Hera..This is a large and impressive piece form the 1880.The discs in the neckalce are 2" long.There will never be another.CLICKCLICKCLICKCLICKCLICK
