This cameo is stunning! Crafted of 18K gold, this piece features a scrolling motif framework decorated with bright white gold flowers. The portrait of the lady is fun and charming, she has a Gibson Girl style hairdo and rolling curves. This piece dates to the 1940s or so. This is crafted of tan shell with hints of yellow, carved with great detail and delicacy in a pretty portrait.
Cameo is the art of carving a layered material, creating a portrait or landscape with the difference in the colors. While traditionally done in shell, banded onyx has been used in cameo work - particularly in Greece and Italy - for hundreds, if not thousands, of years.
Love this piece but want to make it more versatile, we here at Market Square Jewelers along with our master metalsmiths can convert this fantastic brooch into a necklace or pendant for an additional fee, please contact Alex for more information!
