Cameo

Garnet cameo in bas-relief of the facing head of a woman, her hair gathered in two bunches of curls above the forehead and swept back over the ears. Flat on the back with a bevelled edge suggesting it was originally set in a ring. The back, left side of her head, and either side of the chin are chipped.
