Description from the seller

Collar with Cameo Pendant Incised on Shell – Rhodium-Plated 925 Silver, Handmade Craftsmanship

Elegant necklace with natural pearls enhanced by a significant cameo pendant on a shell finely hand-engraved, an authentic expression of the great Italian artisan tradition.

The cameo depicts a classic mythological-inspired scene: a winged cherub (Eros/Cupid) approaching a reclining female figure, a symbol of love, passion, and harmony.
The composition is rich in details, from the finely carved wings to the delicate drapery, making the subject come alive and highly expressive.

The pendant comes with a 925 rhodium-plated silver chain, which adds brilliance and protects the jewelry over time.

Handmade by Italian artisans, this necklace represents a unique piece of jewelry, rich in history and charm.

Seller's Story

My creations are born at the heart of Italy’s artisanal tradition in Torre del Greco, a world-renowned symbol for coral processing and cameo carving. Each piece of jewelry is the result of knowledge handed down through generations: the coral is carefully selected, the cameo hand-carved by master artisans, every detail refined according to techniques that belong to the history of Mediterranean jewelry art. I believe in authenticity, in natural materials and in the value of manual work. For this reason I offer only pieces that embody identity, culture and passion, pure expressions of Italian excellence. Each object is not just a piece of jewelry, but a fragment of tradition that continues to live on through time.
