Sterling Silver 925 - Necklace with pendant - hand-carved cameo

### Floral Carved Hand-Engraved Cameo Necklace – Rhodium-plated 925 Silver

Refined handcrafted necklace featuring a distinctive **three-dimensional floral cameo**, entirely hand-engraved according to the tradition of the master engravers of **Torre del Greco**, a town world-renowned for the ancient art of cameo carving.

The centerpiece of the jewelry is a cameo of organic, irregular shape, carved with a rich composition of **flowers layered in relief**. The engraving skillfully uses the natural shading of the shell, alternating white-creamy tones with delicate pinkish and brown veining that highlight the depth of the petals.

The mount in **Rhodium-plated 925 Silver** follows delicately the natural profile of the cameo through a series of sinuous elements and small support points. The bail also features an open, sculptural design, perfectly harmonizing with the artisanal character of the pendant.

Completing the piece is a slender **45 cm Rhodium-plated 925 Silver Venetian chain**, bright and essential, designed to let the cameo take center stage.

### A UNIQUE CAMEO

Unlike classic cameos with a perfectly oval shape, this piece preserves a freer, more natural profile, enhanced by a mounting that follows its irregularities. The especially pronounced floral carving creates an interesting three-dimensional effect and makes the pendant look different depending on the angle from which it is viewed.

Being made on **natural shell and hand-engraved**, slight color variations, markings, and small irregularities are intrinsic to the material and the artisan craft and contribute to the piece’s uniqueness.

### THE ART OF TORRE DEL GRECO

The cameo stems from Torre del Greco’s engraving tradition, where shell working is passed down through generations. Through manual engraving, the artisan uses the shell’s different color layers to bring out the floral motif and give it depth and relief.
