Athena Materials: shell, gold Date: ca 1840-50 Size of the cameo: 2 x 1 3/4 Condition: mint. The frame is in excellent condition   Museum quality cameo, carved in very high relief to depict the Goddess Athena. Unusual because she has two Medusa's heads: one is on the breast, the second on the helmet. This cameo is extremely rare because its artistic quality and because it is a frontal portrait. An unique piece, highly desirable.
