When I saw the image, I thought Love and Psyche as well, but that wouldn''t fit mourning symbology at all.Date: 12/5/2009 3:32:12 PM

I can''t believe I forgot to post this one! It''s a high-relief shell cameo set in jet (coal-like fossilized material). It has a little damage to the background shell in the upper right, but not too bad. Jet indicates mourning, so it''s probably an angel carrying a soul to Heaven. Though it could be Cupid and Psyche.
