    This is my first Lava jewelry. Of course I've seen a lot come along. But this cameo was so beautiful and fine cut that I could not leave it. The color is soft yellow/beige brown. A common color for lava.
    The setting has no mark at all but tested for silver as the pin but I think that the safety lock was put on later.

    Does anyone know who this lady might be?

      We don't know what the artisans had in mind when they carved these ladies wreathed in flowers, but among collectors she is usually regarded as the goddess Flora, who is also associated with the season of Spring. :)
