Description from the seller
Artisan Necklace with Sardonyx Cameo “Sirenetta” – 925 Sterling Silver Rhodiumed and Zirconia
Refined necklace made in rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver, embellished with an elegant sardonyx cameo in the shape of a drop, hand-engraved entirely by master artisans of Torre del Greco, the symbol city of cameo tradition.
The cameo depicts a splendid mermaid, carved with great care in the details: the female figure rises in relief from the shell, with long wavy hair and the finely worked tail. The natural contrast between the white of the engraving and the warm tones of the sardonyx shell enhances the depth and precision of the craftsmanship.
The 925 sterling silver setting is surrounded by a radiant frame of white zircons, also present on the clasp, which adds further sparkle to the jewel without taking away protagonism from the cameo.
The mermaid, a fascinating figure linked to the sea and mythology, is a symbol of beauty, charm, freedom, and mystery. A particularly evocative subject that makes this piece original and full of personality.

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.
