All of these exquisite details are beautifully captured through expert carving. To finish, the shell cameo has been set into a silver gilt mil-grain detailed bezel setting.

Cameo jewellery is a timeless art form with roots in ancient times, featuring delicately carved gemstones or shell pieces portraying profiles or scenes. These exquisite adornments are set into various accessories like rings and brooches, cherished for their beauty and historical significance.
