Vintage Black Glass Intaglio Gold Tone Brooch Convertible Pendant

Elegant vintage convertible brooch/pendant featuring a striking black glass intaglio (reverse-etched cameo) with a gold-tone classical scene: a standing draped woman (possibly a goddess or allegorical figure holding a staff) accompanied by a seated or kneeling attendant—evoking timeless Neoclassical or mythological romance. Set in an ornate gold-tone frame with twisted rope borders, delicate rose/floral accents at the corners, and leafy filigree details.  Convertible Design: Easily worn as a brooch (secure horizontal pin back) or pendant (integrated bale/loop for necklace chain—add your own chain or pair with one from your collection!)    Size & Weight: Approx. 2.25 x 2 (statement size without being overwhelming); substantial 39g heft for quality feel.   Materials: Thick black glass cabochon (smooth, cool to the touch like stone) with gold-etched intaglio design; gold-tone plated metal frame (bright luster with minimal wear—excellent vintage condition).   Era: Mid-century (likely 1950s–1970s), part of the popular revival of Victorian/Grand Tour cameo styles in accessible costume jewelry. Unsigned.  Condition: Excellent overall—no chips.   This versatile accessory adds dramatic elegance to blazers, scarves, dresses, or as a pendant on a simple chain—perfect for everyday sophistication or as a thoughtful gift for lovers of classical motifs, vintage costume jewelry, or statement brooches. A charming nod to ancient art in modern wearable form.
