Vintage rare 14 kt gold cameo pendant brooch with original blue velvet lined box.
Signed NOTO
BROOCH CLASP NEEDS REPAIR. I would recommend having a jeweler analyze the broken clasp to repair. I will send the tiny clasp piece in a separate bag.
Cameo has a movable pendant bail that tucks inside the brooch when not in use for a necklace.
Famously Signed 'G. NOTO' on lower back
The Cameo Shell is set in a 'K14' Solid Yellow GOLD 'Ancient Rome' Style Frame
Giovanni Noto (b.1902 - d.1985) was a supreme world-famous master Italian carver who managed the renowned Giovanni Apa Studio in Italy as artistic director from 1947 until his death in 1985.
He was known as the "professor" and called "Michelangelo's Chisel" for his outstanding and notable art talent.
[Giovanni Apa Studio: In 1848, Giovanni Apa, who was a supreme Master Italian Goldsmith, founded his 'Giovanna Apa Studio' in Torre del Greco, Italy, a town on the Gulf of Naples at the foot of Mount Vesuvius. Ever since the time of the Bourbon Kingdom of Naples, this region has been known worldwide as a center of excellence in coral and jewelry works.]
Signed on the reverse back... "G. Noto"

Do you mind saying where you got it? Family heirloom? Asking because I have one very similar

@fairymobmother I purchased it at an estate sale in California. I wish I knew more of its history but unfortunately I don’t. I’m just going to imagine it’s traveled far and saw some adventure 😁
