When it comes to evaluating the worth of a cameo, you need to consider:

1) The workmanship of the piece. Beautifully carved pieces are worth more than substandard pieces.

2) The design of the piece. Certain designs are more desirable than others.

3) The age of the piece, in general, all things equal the older the piece, the more it is worth, although a well-executed, modern cameo will easily be worth more than a substandard, Victorian piece.

4) The size of the piece, different sizes can affect the value.

5) The material it is carved out of. In general, plastic cameos have little value, while more expensive and exotic materials mean a more expensive cameo.
