SOLD - Victorian, Whitby Jet High Relief, Bacchante Portrait Cameo Brooch


A fantastic Whitby jet cameo brooch featuring a high relief profile portrait of a Bacchante adorned with grapes and vines flowing through her hair. Bacchantes were devoted followers of the Greek Gold Bacchus (also known as Dionysus). Bacchus was the God of wine, pleasure and festivity. The ram's head is also symbol of Bacchus. 

Whitby Jet is the fossilised remains of a tree (similar to the monkey puzzle tree) sourced from the English town of Whitby in North Yorkshire. 

This quality cameo brooch is in very good antique condition, it has a strong t-bar and C-clasp fitting verso.
