Venetian Necklace with Carved Carnelian Cameo in Hand-Engraved Shell – 925 Rhodium-Plated Silver, Handcrafted Jewelry from Torre del Greco
A timeless piece of jewelry that embodies the entire tradition of Italian engraving art: this Venetian necklace with cameo pendant is a true expression of classic elegance and exceptional artisanal craftsmanship.
The cameo, made from Cassis Rufa shell (corniola), is finely hand-engraved by the master artisans of Torre del Greco, renowned worldwide for their skill in cameo carving.
The scene depicts a delicate female profile, a symbol of grace, beauty and timeless refined elegance.

Engraving: entirely handmade
Setting: 925 silver, rhodium-plated
Chain: Venetian style
Necklace length: 45 cm
Pendant dimensions: approximately 3.5 x 2.5 cm

A piece of jewelry that tells a story
Each cameo is unique: the natural shades of the shell and the manual engraving make every piece unrepeatable, far from any industrial production.
Wearing it means carrying with you a fragment of history, art and Italian tradition.
Style and versatility
Perfect for:
- elegant occasions
- classic and refined outfits
- lovers of vintage and craftsmanship
It easily complements both modern looks and more traditional styles, becoming a discreet yet highly personality-filled focal point.

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.
