Description from the seller
**Hand-Carved Lady Luck Sardonyx Cameo Necklace – 925 Sterling Silver with Yellow Gold Plating and Zircons – Torre del Greco Craftsmanship**
An exquisite, exclusive handcrafted necklace featuring a beautiful **natural sardonyx shell cameo, entirely hand-carved**, depicting Lady Luck, a symbol of fortune, destiny, and good luck.
A timeless, romantic piece of jewelry celebrating the excellence of Torre del Greco’s ancient carving tradition through an elegant composition rich in detail.
**THE CAMEO AND ITS REFINED CARVING**
The centerpiece of the necklace is a magnificent oval sardonyx shell cameo, featuring a delicate female profile carved in relief.
Lady Luck’s face, with its harmonious, refined lines, is enhanced by a beautiful hairstyle of soft waves and finely sculpted curls that flow elegantly along the neck.
The distinctive carving highlights every detail of the face, lips, and hair, creating a striking three-dimensional effect.
The figure’s luminous white color stands out against the shell’s natural brown background, creating a captivating contrast that enhances the depth and precision of the handwork.
**WIRE-STYLE SETTING IN 925 STERLING SILVER WITH YELLOW GOLD PLATING**
The cameo is enhanced by a distinctive **artistic wire-style setting in 925 sterling silver plated with yellow gold**, with sinuous lines that delicately follow the shell’s natural shape.
The open, asymmetrical design gives the pendant an original, contemporary look, allowing the carving to stand out without compromising its elegance.
A small, sparkling white zircon accents the side of the setting, while the refined **upper bail, embellished with white zircons**, adds further radiance to the design.
The piece is completed by an elegant **45 cm rope-style chain**, made of 925 sterling silver plated with yellow gold, whose twisted links gently reflect the light.
The result is a perfect balance of traditional craftsmanship, classic elegance, and modern design.
