Description from the seller
Handmade Sardonyx Cameo Floral Drop Earrings – 925 Sterling Silver Plated in Gold
Elegant drop earrings made in Torre del Greco, a city world-renowned as the capital of cameos and Mediterranean red coral processing. A jewel that expresses the tradition and excellence of Italian craftsmanship, fully handmade by master engravers.
Each earring is embellished with a refined hand-engraved sardonyx cameo, depicting a delicate floral motif inspired by the sunflower. The engraving highlights every petal with extraordinary precision, creating an elegant contrast between the natural shading of the sardonyx shell.
The mounting in 925 silver plated with yellow gold enhances the cameo with a modern and refined style, while the double hanging element design provides movement and lightness, making these earrings ideal for both elegant occasions and everyday wear.
Each cameo is unique and unrepeatable: the natural veining of the shell and the entirely manual craftsmanship make every piece different from any other.
Characteristics
• Sardonyx cameo fully hand-engraved
• Motif: Stylized sunflower
• Cameo material: Madagascar shell
• Mounting: 925 gold-plated silver
• Closure: Lever back
• Dimensions: 7 × 3 cm
• Weight: approximately 21 grams
• Handcrafted in Torre del Greco (Italy)
The Meaning of the Cameo
The sunflower is a symbol of light, positive energy, vitality, and prosperity. It has always represented optimism and inner strength, making these earrings a piece rich in meaning as well as great elegance.
Torre del Greco Craftsmanship
Each cameo is fully hand-engraved according to the ancient artisanal tradition of Torre del Greco, where this craft has been handed down through generations. No two cameos are identical: each engraving is the result of the artisan’s skill and the natural characteristics of the shell, making every creation a true Made in Italy unique piece.
