    Looking for info about era, etc about cameo, appears to be Shell. Has double profile. Wondering if they’re sisters? Marked pat 2066969

      Carved in helmet shell. Often given the title 'Sisters' but as far as I know imaginary figures. The fancy word for a composition like this with two overlapping profiles is 'jugate'. I would put it to the 1950s.
