Both items are in fair/poor condition. The cameo is quite heavily worn, the detail is all rubbed, the cameo feels quite loose in the collet. There are several hairline fractures to the front of the cameo. The surround is dented and the pin is missing. The seed pearls to the necklace are all off shape, some more round others flatter in shape, the pearls would benefit from a clean, the clasp is metal and tarnished.
