Description from the seller

Elegant handmade drop earrings in Sardonyx cameo, finished in 18k yellow gold plated silver, crafted in Torre del Greco, a city renowned worldwide as the capital of cameos and Mediterranean Red Coral processing. A jewel that expresses the tradition and excellence of Italian craftsmanship, entirely handmade by master engravers.

Each earring is adorned 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 tones of the sardonyx shell.

The mounting in 925 silver plated in yellow gold enhances the cameo with a modern and refined style, while the double-element pendant 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 workmanship make each jewel different from any other.

Characteristics

• Sardonyx cameo fully hand-engraved

• Motif: Stylized sunflower

• Cameo material: Madagascar oyster shell

• Mounting: 925 silver plated in yellow gold

• Closure: Hook (ear wire)

• Dimensions: 6 × 2.5 cm

• Weight: about 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 jewel 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 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 genuine Made in Italy unique piece.

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.
