She is so lovely, I don't believe she is one of the Muse's more likely attributed to Isadora Duncan as she dances gracefully bare breasted with her dress & bodice of scarves flowing in the breeze around her. Most of the time the Muse's are depicted in three's but she stands alone dancing to her own tune. I'm not sure of her age but she did come from an estate sale and looks Edwardian or Deco in design most likely around 1920's. The frame is marked 800 typical of that era, with a fine yellow rope chain that might be gold. She measures 1 1/4" with deep detailing, no wear detected. The shell is in fine condition with no cracks or discoloration and appears to have some initials on the back but it is so faint I can't make it out. There is the type of bail that was used to attach a safety chain but could also be used for a neck chain or ribbon. <p>
