Stunning Antique Hand Carved Shell Cameo Pendant Necklace

This is from my personal collection. I don’t know if this was always a pendant, or if it was a a brooch that someone made into a pendant, because you can see some of the solder marks. It is a hand carved shell cameo with a paperclip gold filled chain. A large section of chain was missing so I added a toggle clasp and some chain because it’s all I had at the time. This can easily be removed or changed all together.
The cameo itself is a very pale, almost with a hint of salmon, in color.
It will come in the box as photographed. I just have more jewelry now than I can possibly ever wear! Please feel free to ask questions.
