This Victorian Headpiece is not for mummies, I mean dummies, oh never mind!
This Victorian Headpiece with a cameo brooch is a creative interpretation, a combination of a Victorian style hat with a medieval slant. The cameo brooch has an antique elliptical decorative frame and each centre has a diamante.
Cameo is actually a method of carving an object although we mainly associate cameos with the image of a face in profile; ‘cameo‘ rather refers to the method of carving rather than the subject. Cameos consist of images carved in relief, against a different coloured background.
