Description from the seller

Collana con Pendente/Spilla Cammeo Vittoriano Inciso a Mano – Argento 925 Rodiato

Elegant jewelry in classic Victorian style, featuring a refined cameo in Cassis Madagascar seashell, entirely hand-carved by expert artisans from Torre del Greco, a city renowned worldwide for its historic tradition in cameo artistry.

The engraving depicts a delicate female profile, carried out with great attention to facial details, hairstyle and dress. The oval mount in rhodium-plated 925 silver, with a classic taste, enhances the natural contrast of the shell and gives the piece timeless elegance.

The special structure allows the jewelry to be used both as a pendant and as a brooch, making it versatile and particularly appealing to collectors and cameo enthusiasts.

ART OF THE CAMEO

Each hand-engraved cameo is a unique creation: the natural shading of the shell and the engraver’s work make every piece unrepeatable. A jewel that embodies the artisanal tradition of Torre del Greco and the timeless charm of classic jewelry.

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.
