Description from the seller

Handmade Sardonyx Camellia Flower Pendant Earrings – Rhodium-Plated 925 Silver

Elegant drop earrings made in Torre del Greco, a city world-renowned as the capital of cameo carving and Mediterranean Red Coral. A jewel that expresses the tradition and excellence of Italian craftsmanship, entirely handmade by master engravers.

Each earring is adorned with a refined hand-carved Sardonyx cameo, depicting a delicate floral motif inspired by the sunflower. The engraving highlights each petal with extraordinary precision, creating an elegant contrast between the natural hues of the sardonyx shell.

The mounting in Rhodium-Plated 925 Silver enhances the cameo with a modern and refined style, while the two-part dangling design adds movement and lightness, making these earrings ideal for both formal occasions and everyday wear.

Each cameo is unique and unrepeatable: the natural veining of the shell and the entirely manual workmanship make every piece different from any other.

Characteristics

• Hand-carved Sardonyx cameo entirely by hand

• Motif: Stylized sunflower

• Cameo material: Madagascan shell

• Mounting: Rhodium-Plated 925 Silver

• Closure: French hook

• Dimensions: 6 × 2.5 cm

• Weight: approximately 16 grams

• Handcrafted in Torre del Greco (Italy)

The Meaning of the Cameo

The sunflower symbolizes 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.

The Craftsmanship of Torre del Greco

Each cameo is fully hand-engraved according to the ancient artisanal tradition of Torre del Greco, where this craft has been passed down through generations. No cameo is identical to another: every engraving results from the artisan’s skill and the natural characteristics of the shell, making every piece a true unique Made in Italy creation.

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.
